All,
There have been many people asking for how to do installs now that CentOS-4 has moved past End Of Life.
First, I want to tell you that it is VERY dangerous to use CentOS-4 now. There is at least 1 critical (ie, remotely exploitable root) issue on CentOS 4 already:
https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2012-1182
The number of unpatched critical issues will grow. Using CentOS-4 is NOT safe.
That being said, here is how you can use the Vault. I have created a CentOS-Base.repo that should work for users who absolutely need it:
http://vault.centos.org/4.9/CentOS-Base.repo
If you replace your current file with this file, you should be able to use the vault.
There will be no updates to the files there.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Note: This file has been pushed to the Vault master server. It may take up to 30 minutes for it to show up on all the vault servers.
