Thank you for your helpful information.  I'm usually

Anyway it turns out I have a dependency problem.  I
think I need to install something from python as well.

Here's the error:

[root at localhost myDownloads]# rpm -i
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/yum-2.3.2-7.noarch.rpm
warning: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.F2TQer: Header V3 DSA

error: Failed dependencies:
        python-elementtree is needed by
yum-2.3.2-7.noarch
        python-sqlite is needed by yum-2.3.2-7.noarch
