Thanks,

  I'm trying to keep CentOS 5.5 from upgrading to 5.6 because of my=20

issue with the time sync. I thought I had it figured out till today. I=20 have tried google for help but with no luck. Can someone point me to a=20 page or link that will give me a good idea as to how to stop the upgrade=20 but still allow me to update my 5.5 packages?

Is it just the time sync pagage (ntp-4.2.2p1-9.el5.centos.2.1) that is giving you trouble? In which case just add an excludepkgs= line in the updates. (Like this [from a C4 system using a CentOSPlus kernel and php packages]:

.. #released updates [update] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&rep... #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 priority=1 protect=1 excludepkgs=php* kernel kernel-devel kernel-doc ..

This is what I tried, that is not working now.

I edited "/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo" to look as such.

<snip> [base] name=3DCentOS-5.5 - Base ## name=3DCentOS-5.5 - Base mirrorlist=3Dhttp://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=3D5.5&arch=3D$basearch&r= epo=3Dos #baseurl=3Dhttp://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=3D1 gpgkey=3Dfile:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5 priority=3D1 </snip>
