Nope, that's gone, don't know why.

but I found a /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo on the net and have put it 
in. Seems to work fine.

#
# Repository : fedora-Base
#

[base]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base
#baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/$releasever/$basearch/os/
mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-$releasever
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1

Look okay to you?

Thanks for the help. gftp is now installed and running.
