The plugin is named: yum-plugin-protectbase You would also need to edit your /etc/yum.conf and add this line (after installing the protectbase plugin): plugins=1 The other option is to only include the packages you need from centosplus and dags repo using the "includepkgs=" yum.conf repo option. If you put this in the centosplus repo definition, you will get only the postfix programs (for example): includepkgs=postfix postfix-pflogsumm Then when running updates and installs, only postfix and postfix- pflogsumm would be looked at from the centosplus repo.
