A silly question but... Have you commented the Development branch, and uncommented the fedora, and fedora updates section?

Of course not, that's why I was asking.
I couldn't figure it out in the yum configuration but in the rhn/sources I found the lines and changed them as follows:

yum fedora-core-3 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/$ARCH/os/ yum updates-released-fc3 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/$ARCH/

yum-mirror fedora-core-3 http://fedora.redhat.com/download/up2date-mirrors/fedora-core-3 yum-mirror updates-released-fc3 http://fedora.redhat.com/download/up2date-mirrors/updates-released-fc3

#yum updates-testing http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/3/$ARCH/ #yum-mirror updates-testing http://fedora.redhat.com/download/up2date-mirrors/updates-testing-fc3

#yum development http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$ARCH/ #yum-mirror development http://fedora.redhat.com/download/up2date-mirrors/fedora-core-rawhide


I tried that and it's still not working, probably because the servers are being hammered right now.

I don't suppose you could not top post it makes things much easier (for me at least).

For me, I downloaded the latest fedora-release rpm and yum rpm from a mirror, rpm -Uvh those, this sets up yum to use mirror lists.

A lot of them are still saying permission denied but with a couple of retries you eventually get a working mirror.

I have done that on two boxes now and it all worked fine.

For future reference yum now uses /etc/yum.repos.d to hold indevidual files for repo's, their fairly simple to understand.
