I misspoke. Yum installed kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14 October 13, 2007
according to yum.log. So, yum appears to have worked *once* updating the
kernel. Looking in CentOS vault, I saw .15 which gives me a time frame
for what it's worth. All I did was add rpmforge. I have removed it with
no help. I will post any file related to this mystery when requested.
Time wise, I have spent at least 4 days attempting to locate this
failure. Here is the file you requested:

# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for
CentOS.
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client.  You should use this for CentOS
updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try
the 
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.
