I get the follwing message when I type yum install mplayer

yum install mplayer
Error: Cannot find baseurl or name for repo: freshrpms. Skipping
Setting up Install Process

Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: livna-stable
failure: repodata/repomd.xml from livna-stable: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.
[root@localhost pmprichard]#

I have tried export http_proxy=http//192.168.0.2:6588 and i have tried using a modified yum conf

I am running fedora core 3. My access to the internet is though analogx proxy which runs on a windows machine. The http port is 6588. Internet works no problem. Why won't yum work. Any help would be appreciated.

same here i get:

[root@localhost ~]# up2date
