Right, so I see this:

in repomd.xml

<?xml version="1.0" ?><repomd xmlns="http://linux.duke.edu/metadata/repo">
 

In mirrorlist.txt

# repo = updates-released-f9 arch = i386 country = AU 
http://mirror.optus.net/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386
http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386
http://mirror.3fl.net.au/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386
http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386
http://ringtail.its.monash.edu.au/pub/fedora/linux/updates/9/i386

I'm not seeing linux.duke.edu in here.  Should I?
