As I said in reply to linux4life: 1. Comment out "up2date default" 2. make sure you have something like this in your sources: yum fedora-core-1 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/os #yum updates-released http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/1/i386 #yum updates-testing http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/1/i386 (only three lines, not 6) Better use a mirror near you, download.fedora.redhat.com is very busy, and this sometimes causes up2date to hang. see: http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html > Does /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn-applet need to be edited too? nope Christoph
