Hello, I've got a CentOS 5 box. I want to install the uucp rpm to give access to the cu command. I do a yum -y install uucp and yum is hanging on the transaction test. I get the file downloaded fine, but on transaction test yum freezes and i have to kill it's pid to stop it. Any ideas? I'm looking for a program for serial terminals. Thanks. Dave.
