I commented the fedora.redhat.com url line out, then reconstructed it 
with about 4 of the other east coast addresses but wasn't able to 
make yum talk to any of them.  I finally grabbed the updates with 
konqi and installed them with rpm.

Can someone post the full line that would be added to make it work 
with the duke (or ibiblio) http server?  Maybe I fubared it somehow.
