I am still having problems with up2date and rpm on my FC 2 box. For some reason, updates fail to install due to file conflicts. I have attached my configuration and the error messages below. My /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file contains the following: # egrep -v '^$|^#' /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources yum fedora-core-2 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/$ARCH/os/ yum updates-released-fc2 http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/$ARCH/ yum-mirror fedora-core-2 file:///root/yum-mirrors yum-mirror updates-released-fc2 file:///root/yum-mirrors-updates And my yum mirror files contain this: # cat /root/yum-mirrors ftp://ftp.software.umn.edu/pub/linux/fedora/core/2/i386/os/ http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/ ftp://mirror.hiwaay.net/redhat/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/ ftp://ftp.net.usf.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/ http://fedora.glorb.com/core/2/i386/os/ # cat /root/yum-mirrors-updates ftp://ftp.software.umn.edu/pub/linux/fedora/core/updates/2/i386/ http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/i386/ ftp://mirror.hiwaay.net/redhat/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/i386/ ftp://ftp.net.usf.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/i386/ up2date shows that there are some updates available: # up2date -l file:///root/yum-mirrors using mirror: ftp://mirror.hiwaay.net/redhat/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/os/ file:///root/yum-mirrors-updates using mirror: http://mirror.cs.wisc.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/2/i386/ Fetching Obsoletes list for channel: fedora-core-2...
