Up2date Problems

Well I have just tried using the below sources and got the same problem.
I have included the content of my sources file for ref.

 

### this describes the various package repos up2date will look into

### for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm repos, yum repos, 

### and "dir" repos

 

 

### format is one repo entry per line, # starts comments, the

### first word on each line is the type of repo. 

 


### the defalt rhn (using "default" as the url means 

### use the one in the up2date config file

#up2date default

 

### When a channel-label is required for the non up2date repo's,

### the label is soley used as an internal identifier and is not

### based on the url or any other info from the repo. 

 

### an apt style repo, this time arjanv's 2.6 kernel repo

### format is:

### type  channel-label      service:server         path        repo
name

 

#apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel

 

### Note that for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specificed

### space seperated. 

 

### an yum style repo 

### format:

### type  channel-label     url 

 

#yum fedora-core-1 http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1

#yum updates-released
http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1

#yum updates-testing
http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/testing/fedora-core-1

 

yum fedora-core-1
http://ftp.surfnet.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/1/i386/os

yum updates-released
http://ftp.surfnet.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/updates/1/i386

 

 

### an local directory full of packages

### format

#dir my-favorite-rpms-i386-9 /var/spool/RPMS/

 

 

# multiple versions of all repos except "up2date" can be used.
Depenencies

# can be resolved "cross-repo" if need be.

I used http://ftp.surfnet.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/distr/fedora/1/ yesterday
evening to update everything

and I had 270KBs on my ADSL connections.

Hi folks,

 

Just a very quick question, I am trying to update FC1 at the moment and
I keep receiving an error stating that the RedHat Network is currently
experiencing problems. I have changed sources as specified through
http://fedoranews.org/contributors/alexander_dalloz/mirror/ and I am
still receiving the same problem even though I have tried a number of
different sources. I have made sure that I am able to access the net and
I can browser the net from the same computer. Any ideas as I am slowly
running out and I need to have an update computer ASAP.

 

Thanks

 

Kev
