Thanks for this post. I was also getting confused today.

I would like to point one of my boxes to the Fedora Core3 Updates
Repository.
Can someone tell me what to put in my "/etc/yum.conf" and
"/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources" files?

Of course, I will keep one of my boxes pointed at rawhide in
anticipation of Fedora Core4 Test1, hmmm?

Thanks,
Ernesto
