I tried to fetch repomd.xml from one of the URLs posted above and got
the following:

> wget http://mirror.newnanutilities.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/6/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml:
--14:11:58--  http://mirror.newnanutilities.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/6/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml:
           => `repomd.xml:'
Resolving mirror.newnanutilities.org... 216.130.149.8

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
14:11:58 ERROR 404: Not Found.

Using Firefox I went to the site,
http://mirror.newnanutilities.org/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/, and
found that directory updates/6/ does not exist. Fix your mirrors and
you should be OK.
