YES! That worked. What is the next step to fix the issue then?

Thank you so much... very frustrating. I'm obviously a linux newbie trying
to find my way.

Sorry for replying to my own post but, the --disablerepo is what fixed it. I
wasn't clear on the previous post.

My ultimate goal is to install clamav using yum. I just tried yum
--disablerepo=rpmforge update

This is what I get:


[root@server ~]# yum --disablerepo=rpmforge install clamav
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: clamav
Nothing to do
