yum problem with fedora.us repos

Hello everybody

I've searched this list for my problem but couldn't find an answer.

When I run "yum check-update" I get the following failure:

[root at localhost ~]# yum check-update
Repository updates-released already added, not adding again
Repository base already added, not adding again
Setting up Repo:  fedora-unstable
Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: fedora-unstable
failure: repodata/repomd.xml from fedora-unstable: [Errno 256] No more 
mirrors to try.

My Fedora Extras part of yum.conf looks like this:
[fedora-stable]
name=Fedora.us Extras (Stable)
baseurl=http://fedora.quicknet.nl/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.stable
 
http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.stable
 
http://fedora.mirror.sdv.fr/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.stable
   http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.stable
gpgcheck=1

[fedora-unstable]
name=Fedora.us Extras (Unstable)
baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
 
http://fedora.mirror.sdv.fr/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
 
http://fedora.quicknet.nl/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora.us/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
 
http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
gpgcheck=1

[fedora-testing]
name=Fedora.us Extras (Testing)
baseurl=http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
 
http://fedora.quicknet.nl/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
 
http://fedora.mirror.sdv.fr/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
 
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora.us/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
 
http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
gpgcheck=1


However, when I go to http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fedora/3/i386/ 
all I can see are the following directories:

RPMS.extras
RPMS.os
RPMS.updates-testing
RPMS.update

Could anyone please help me setting up the fedora extras repos so that I 
can get xine, xmms-mp3 and such stuff?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Christian
