The updated repos are for updates to your FC install. If you have a lot of PC's that need to be updated it would probably be a good idea to maintain a local copy, in which case your yum.conf would need to change. You'll need to disable (or change) the repos listed in /etc/yum.repos.d/ (base and updates) Don't enable the devel or test repos unless you know what you are doing (and have a reason for enabling them) -Mike
