You have to be in the directory that contains the header information. To
get the standard updates for the release put something like tthe below
in the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file.
yum static-fed
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/os/
for the pre-QA approved updates you would need the below entry.
yum pre-QA-Updates
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/1/i386/
For updates that were QA approved you would put the below.
yum QA-approved-updates
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/updates/1/i386/
Also, if you are having trouble with it saying that there is no channel
avalable. Make sure that the line that says.
up2date default
is commented to the below format. This stops the RHN checkin, based on
your release channel.
### up2date default
I hope this helps,
Jim
