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.
What does the following command produce on your system?

yum --noplugins --disable '*' --enable updates list 'kernel*'


yum --noplugins --disable '*' --enable updates list 'kernel*'

based on this output ... somehow your kernel is excluded in update set, even though it sees kernel-doc.noarch and kernel-headers.i386.

This leads me to believe that there is a "exclude=kernel" somewhere in a config file:

please check /etc/yum.conf again
