I know, I should not have to ask this question, but it appears that ALL my previous yum.repos.d entries have been trashed, with the only ones left is base, CentOS Media then the mirrors.rpmforge.reo, rhel-mondo.repo, rpmforge.repo, and webmin.repo. I've been bitten by the mixing of repositories before and want to avoid that scenario. Something is amok in the existing, and it throws all kinds of errors about something not found or such, so I'm asking some kind soul of they would share their working repo file structure for me? I *think* I have protect base, and priorities installed already, but will double check. This is yet another new clean install after a botched attempt to recover some data from a mondo-rescue DVD which apparently dis some ugly things to stuff including grub. Anyhow, my main items of interest would be stuff like clamav-milter, spamass-milter, and anything else dealing with handling spam, not to mention some other scientific software like udunits, perhaps Grads (if exists), etc.. all geared towards weather. My humble thanks and apologies for my dumbness for not keeping good backups of important stuff.. it WONT happen again ! head hanging low :( Sam

I will address one possible issue, but I doubt that it has anything to do with your problem. You should not have both protect base and priorities installed. Use priorities. It is the newer and more powerful package. Someone else will hopefully jump in to give you their working repo file. Be sure to set different priorities as suggested in the CentOS Wiki. For example, I gave RPMforge a much higher priority than EPEL. 73,
