When I type

    yum install xorg-x11

I get:

You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good 
thing. However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need 
to download the keys for packages you wish to install and install them. 
You can do that by running the command:
    rpm --import public.gpg.key
For more information contact your distribution or package provider.

So, I typed

    rpm --import public.gpg.key

and got

    error: public.gpg.key: import read failed.

My network interface is working fine.  How can I either a) turn of 
checking of packages via GPG keys, or b) import the GPG key?

Thanks,
Lyle
