Up2datesources File: Your opinion


Hello:

A friend of mine gave me a /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources file.

I have a feeling that some things are missing because it says that my system has been uptodate for some time.

I lost my original sources file so I can't revert back to it.

Can someone please recommend some changes, deletions or alterations (or send me their copy of their sources file for Fedora Core 2?

Here's my sources file:


### this describes the various package repos up2date will look into
### for packages. It currently supports apt-rpm repos, yum repos,
### and "dir" repos


### format is one repo entry per line, # starts comments, the
### first word on each line is the type of repo.

### the default rhn (using "default" as the url means
### use the one in the up2date config file
#up2date default

### When a channel-label is required for the non up2date repo's,
### the label is solely used as an internal identifier and is not
### based on the url or any other info from the repo.

### an apt style repo, this time arjanv's 2.6 kernel repo
### format is:
### type channel-label service:server path repo name

#apt arjan-2.6-kernel-i386 http://people.redhat.com ~arjanv/2.5/ kernel

### Note that for apt repos, there can be multiple repo names specified
### space seperated.

### an yum style repo
### format:
### type channel-label url

Well I don't use up2date at all. I use yum to update. Here is my yum.conf that you can use:

Thanks for the yum.conf I'll give it a try.

But if anyone out there has a up2date sources file, I'll really appreciate it.


Thanks.
