I think perhaps I missed something in some discussions over the last week or so.. I was reminded last night that the repository for CentOS 4.1 had been moved to "vault" .whatever .. Is that correct? What should I have in the /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo ?

For future reference, is there a document that gets updated when the base repository changes?

Thanks..

sam,

if i remember right/know what you have in the yum conf is ok all they do is put a link to the new directory on centos and the mirrors so it will not break anyone yum config files.

This is correct ... you don't have to do anything. The standard CentOS-Base.repo points to:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/

(and updates, extras, addons, etc. for the other repos)

The $releasever is tied to the package centos-release ... but it always stays at 3 for CentOS-3.x and 4 for CentOS-4.x

We always will point http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3/ or http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/ to the latest tree for 3.x or 4.x so that you do not have to do anything, other than use a default centos update method {yum,up2date,apt}, and do and update ... then you have all the latest updates.

Thanks for the info guys.. I know it worked yesterday or day before, and even dag's worked last night, something that had not worked for over a week.
