Can not update a freshly loaded Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS

[Dave Basener]

Robert,
Thanks for the suggestions.  Unfortunately I can not make sure that all 
of the machines are identical - hardware or software.  I can accept that 
there might be a hardware problem with this machine as it is a bit 
elderly.  However, it would seem odd that this is the only error.

In your previous message you mentioned waiting a bit and trying again.  
While I didn't do this with the thought that it might solve the problem, 
I have waited and it appears to make no difference.  I will try this 
more systematically.  If this is the problem it would be nice if Red Hat 
could handle it somehow as I will always have multiple downloads on a 
given day.  That is the whole point of my attempt to standardize our 
systems.

Thanks again,

Dave Basener
