Yum had a relatively long pause before it gave me the same old error messages as usual after modifying the script. But after running it once, it returns to instantly giving me the error messages. (Don't the variables stay set for the duration of the script anyway, so that the calling of yum at the end is affected by those variables? When I was trying to use a local repository, it seemed to work that way -- I needed to not use the proxy for that, and used the script as it stands above to do so...) Mark
