The problem here is not configuring yum, it's finding a repository that contains the package (Superkaramba). Once you've done that, follow that repository's instructions for configuring it for yum. Since I've never heard of Superkaramba, I can't help you with the repo search, but perhaps google could. Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
