Sounds like you need to talk to the support staff where you bought the VPServer - after all, they're the ones responsible for creating your problem.
Alternatively, you could try 'rpm --upgrade http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.2/updates/i386/RPMS/yum-3.2.8-9.el5.cent..."
- add dependencies ad nauseam.
Hosts normally advertise a VPS as being almost like a Dedicated Server. Lots of resources and lots of options. In this case, without being able to use yum, it starts as a Security problem, because he cannot update the packages that are installed. His second problem is that he cannot install new software with yum, which eliminates a lot of options. Unlike Shared Hosting, which is Managed, someone with a VPS must Manage their VPS, as if it was a Dedicated Server, or, pay someone to do that. But, how would they manage it, without yum? It's much more difficult, without yum. IMHO, he should look for a VPS with another provider, that allows him to use yum, etc.
