if i disable addons repo all is well
md5sum shows the primary.xml.gz file is the same as the one on working
machines
okay - then a simple test.
wget the primary.xml.gz from the addons repos on that machine.
do it at the prmpt then run
xmllint --noout primary.xml.gz
maybe you have a weird proxycache in front of that system?
yes, yum does not work :)
it has been running as configured for several years
See - I like it when people say things like the above "running as

i ran 'yum update' to update from 5.3 to 5.4
update had no problems
i performed the same update on several other machines and had no problem
all machines are configured pretty much the same
all machines are 32 bit
can you run a:
rpm -Va
look for anything _odd_
-sv
