Hey Clovis!Hi John, Exist the yum.conf??? If OK Possible, corrupt the file Bye, Clóvis
The yum.conf exists BUT it is listed in the /etc directory as yum.conf~ (tilde). I tried (as described above) to rename it but it won't rename. Can I change the permissions on this file (to what exactly and how) OR do I delete the file? Some other option?
Thanks for your help.
John
