Alternatively, you could try 'rpm --upgrade http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.2/updates/i386/RPMS/yum-3.2.8-9.el5.centos.2.1.noarch.rpm"; - add dependencies ad nauseam.Hosts normally advertise a VPS as being almost like a Dedicated Server. Lots of resources and lots of options. In this case, without being able to use yum, it starts as a Security problem, because he cannot update the packages that are installed. His second problem is that he cannot install new software with yum, which eliminates a lot of options. Unlike Shared Hosting, which is Managed, someone with a VPS must Manage their VPS, as if it was a Dedicated Server, or, pay someone to do that. But, how would they manage it, without yum? It's much more difficult, without yum. IMHO, he should look for a VPS with another provider, that allows him to use yum, etc.
Well .. the problem is that yum breaks their VPSThose VPS providers should have provided another way to get updates and install packages.
If you install yum with the normal defaults it will allow you to install packages that will break your VPS.
You should ONLY do what the VPS providers says to do and you should ONLY contact them for support. To do anything else will break your system
