Subject: Yum Update Mirrors
Newsgroups: gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.general
Running FC5 and trying to do a 'yum check-update'. Was receiving timeouts,
and increased the timeout to 300 seconds. Now, when trying to download
primary.xml.gz files...the ETA to completion is over 500 minutes. I'm
assuming the mirror sites are saturated? I'm running on a T-1 connection,
so I'm guessing the bandwidth problem isn't on my end.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can effectively use yum? A
different list of mirror sites? Any help appreciated.

Sometimes there's a conflict between the repositories. what's the output
for "ls -al /etc/yum.repos.d" on your system?
