Doesn't RHEL provide their own support when you buy it? Why not contact their support service?

You created the new repo before installing the ftp package, yum will try to retrieve the data from the new repo, which isn't there yet.

Move the new .repo file to somewhere else then install the ftp package with yum. After that you can move the .repo file back.

Also make sure the xml file is in the correct location.

Cheers
