David, After a "yum clean all" either update or upgrade yum will update to your latest: yum-3.2.8-9.el4.hrb.2.1.2 Currently have the following hrb packages installed: python-iniparse-0.2.3-4.el4.hrb yum-fastestmirror-1.1.10-9.el4.hrb.1 yum-metadata-parser-1.1.2-2.el4.hrb yum-3.2.8-9.el4.hrb.2.1.2 yum-priorities-1.1.10-9.el4.hrb.1 This test VM had not been updated since Dec. 11, 2008. Running a "yum update" using your new yum installed new kernel and kernel-devel, removed 3 sets of old kernel packages, and updated 21 other packages without incident. Running either yum update or upgrade with your testing repo enabled now offers only to update iptables. Phil
