  after i cleaned up my yum.conf file, everything i try now gives me
numerous "failover" errors, like:

# yum list updates
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Base
Getting header.info from server
failover: baseURL = http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/1/i386/os/
              ^^^  no, it's actually spelled "baseurl" in the file :-)
failover: path = headers/header.info
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Released Updates
Getting header.info from server
failover: baseURL = 
http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/1/i386/os/
failover: path = headers/header.info
retrygrab() failed for:
  
http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/1/i386/os/headers/header.info
  Executing failover method
failover: out of servers to try
Error getting file 
http://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/core/updates/1/i386/os/headers/header.info
[Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

  i tried to completely clean my local cache, both with "yum clean" and 
just plain "rm -rf", and start from scratch, and now i get:

# yum clean

Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Base
Using cached header.info file
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Released Updates
Error - /var/cache/yum/updates-released/header.info cannot be found
Please run yum in non-caching mode to correct this header.


  i've checked the man page and googled on that, and the few hits don't 
explain how to get non-caching mode.  comments?
