Looking at that server, there is no headers directory under i386. Does
some configuration need changing somewhere?


Yep, noticed that too, as of a couple days ago.  It seems the headers
aren't there.  You *can* still use at least up2date if you add a line
that uses the dir structure and goes straight to the RPM dir instead of
using the headers.  Takes just a tad longer for it to compare what is
new or not.

dir Rawhide /path/to/rawhide/RPMS/


I noticed most repos that are newer are using the repodata vs.the header directory strategy. Since the rhn-applet started informing that it could not connect to a host of repos, third party and fedora core mirrors, I taylored the mirror listing to other sites with similar results.

rhn-applet and up2date-gnome probably need revised to use repodata. Up2date worked fine when using older fc3 mirror listings from an earier /etc/sysconfig/source file.
