It should be looking at /6/ instead of a specific point release. We (CentOS) do not provide updates for individual point releases. You are several years behind in security and bug-fix updates. Once a specific minor version is expired, it is moved off the main mirrors and into the vault. The current iteration of the /6/ tree is 6.7, so everything below that is no longer available on the mirrors. Have you modified your repository files or are they stock?
Not sure. I’m investigating now. Compared the /etc/yum.repos.d so far and that’s about it.
I might suggest starting off with a 'yum clean all', then running your query again.
OK Thanks. I try that.

I have inherited centos 6.3 and 6.2 vms in an esxi environment. When I do
yum provides ntpd
on the 6.3 box I get a lot of errors like:

Why am I getting these errors? I installed 6.4 in virtualbox and the .repo files seem the same, except the 6.3 box didn’t have a fastback.repo file.
Also why is it looking at 6.4 repos above? When I see:
cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
i.e., this box is 6.3. Shouldn’t it be looking for 6.3 repo info?
Thanks,
