That is correct. What do you get with the command: yum --enablerepo=centosplus list | grep centosplus It should give you an output similar to this: dmapi.i386 2.2.1-1 centosplus dmapi-devel.i386 2.2.1-1 centosplus jfsutils.i386 1.1.7-2 centosplus kernel.i686 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel.i586 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-devel.i586 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-devel.i686 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-hugemem.i686 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-hugemem-devel.i686 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-smp.i586 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus kernel-smp-devel.i586 2.6.9-11.106.unsupport centosplus php-bcmath.i386 5.0.4-2.centos4 centosplus php-dba.i386 5.0.4-2.centos4 centosplus php-soap.i386 5.0.4-2.centos4 centosplus php-xml.i386 5.0.4-2.centos4 centosplus reiserfs-utils.i386 2:3.6.19-2 centosplus xfsdump.i386 2.2.25-1 centosplus xfsprogs.i386 2.6.25-1 centosplus xfsprogs-devel.i386 2.6.25-1 centosplus (you should have some other items, as I have some centosplus items installed and installed items don't show up in this list) If that doesn't work, what is the output of the command: rpm -q yum centos-yumconf centos-release -- Johnny Hughes <http://www.HughesJR.com/>
