CentOS - Jan 2016 - system refuses to install monit.

_**_So I have epel enabled on this centos 6 server, but
yum -y install monit will not install monit.
yum search monit does not show monit as available to be installed.


[root at lb1 ~]# yum install monit
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto
Setting up Install Process
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
  * base: mirror-centos.hostingswift.com
  * epel: reflector.westga.edu
  * extras: mirrors.usinternet.com
  * updates: mirrors.usinternet.com
No package monit available.
Error: Nothing to do

If I download the rpm manually and try to localinstall it, it will not 
install..

[root at mb1 ~]# cat /etc/centos-release

I did a rpm -i of the file and that seems to install the file.. but why 
will it not install with  yum?

Check /etc/yum.conf.  You probably have that listed on an exclude line.
