Hi Dan,
I tried your suggestion, but no matter which mirror I use I get
| [root@hinchinbrook /]# /usr/sbin/yup update yup
| Reading RPM database... (100%)
| Performing dependencies sanity check...
| Checking for package list updates...
|
| Error: URL job failed.
| [root@hinchinbrook /]#
Do you have any idea what might cause this problem?
Thanks, Simon
