Hi Karan,

This is the current /etc/yum.conf:

[root at odx root]# cat /etc/yum.conf
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest

[base]
name=CentOS-2 base
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos-2/i386/CentOS/
;baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/2.1/final/i386/CentOS/

[updates]
name=CentOS-2 updates
baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos-2/updates/
;baseurl=http://vault.centos.org/2.1/updates/i386/

;[extras]
;name=CentOS-2 extras
;baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos-2/extras/

Note that I have reverted the URLs back to their default, the
commented lines are what I tried earlier to be able to use the
archived CentOS-2 mirrors.
