yum list rdesktop

show?

If I remember correctly enable=0 means that repo is turned off.

Hi,

lazlow is correct. In the .repo file give `enabled=1` which will enable your repository.

you can use the --enablerepo=repoidglob option:

Quote:

yum --enablerepo=Fedora install rdesktop

This way you don't have to manually change the enable flag in the repo file.
