You should import the appropriate keys from the root directory of your source of RPM packages. If you installed from CD then, as root, do something like: mount /media/cdrom cd /media/cdrom ls The ls should show you a variety of files, including several RPM-GPG-KEY*. Import the keys for those repositories you expect to use, probably RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora and RPM-GPG-KEY. So: rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora You can come back for the other keys later should you need them. When you are done, cd back to your home directory, and eject the CD ROM cd eject /media/cdrom -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
