    Hi All
    When i try to install packages on my box using yum it is giving out errors. My box is Redhat 9. my yum is " yum-2.0.3-0.fdr.1.rh90 "

    When i try to install one package say webmin it is giving the following error.



    [root@BBand root]# yum install webmin
    Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
    Server: Fedora Linux / stable for Red Hat Linux 9 (i386)
    retrygrab() failed for:
    http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/stable/headers/header.info
    Executing failover method
    failover: out of servers to try
    Error getting file http://download.fedora.us/fedora/redhat/9/i386/yum/stable/hea
    ders/header.info
    [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 307: Temporary Redirect
    [root@BBand root]#

    wht changes should be done in /etc/yum.conf file. As of now i didnt make any change. Its all the default conf file. Is that making the issue ?


    Looking forward to hear from you

    Thanks and regards

    RedHat 9 is very old, so I guess the problem is that the repositories don't exist anymore... But you can install the Webmin rpm from here: http://www.webmin.com/download.html
