Eric,

I just go around to going through your suggestions.

Here are the results:

[root at gabriel yum.repos.d]# rpm -Vf /etc/yum.repos.d/k12ltsp.repo
.......TC c /etc/yum.repos.d/k12ltsp-webmin.repo
.......TC c /etc/yum.repos.d/k12ltsp.repo

[root at gabriel yum.repos.d]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/k12ltsp.repo | grep
mirrorlist
mirrorlist=http://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/mirrors/k12ltsp-4.4

Accessing http://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/mirrors/k12ltsp-4.4 with links
looks normal. One line with
http://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/K12LTSP/4.4.0/


And finally I get the following list from accessing
http://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/K12LTSP/4.4.0/


Index of /K12LTSP/4.4.0

As I mentioned I did a clean install of server setup with some
additional selections no errors or anything during the install.

First step after install was I tried apt-get update - no go
Second step yum install apt-get - no go
Third step yum update - no go
Fourth step called for assistance.

Any clues?
