Hi all,

I updated yum 2.4 to yum 2.9 from ATRPMS by using yum as below.

yum update yum

I now have yum 2.9. pls see yum ver below

[root@mailgw yum]# rpm -qa |grep yum yum-2.9.4-74.el4.at yum-metadata-parser-1.0-7.1_1.el4.at

Before that (i.e when I was running yum 2.4), I could enable yum at startup as below

chkconfig yum on

and I was also able to start/stop/restart yum as below.

/etc/init.d/yum restart.

I also had a crontab at /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron for updates as below.

cat /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron

#!/bin/sh

if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/yum ]; then /usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y update yum /usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y shell /etc/yum/yum-daily.yum fi

But, Since I updated yum to 2.9, All those are gone.

Now I want to know that how to enable, restart yum.

And also I want ot know should I write a crontab for my daily updtaes?

Help needed.
