use http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/ that is the main mirror

http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... repomd.xml
works

Here's what I've got, per instructions on site and from Scott. Shouldn't these work?

[atomic]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - Atomic PSA-Compatible RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/yum/repos/

[psa-7.5]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - SW-Soft PSA 7.5 RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://archive.atomicrocketturtle.com/a ... eleasever/

the /yum/repos/ dir is only if you're using Yum 2.1 (FC3 users), the format is different now, it works by an included file that goes in your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory. If you're not using yum 2.1, then you dont need it.

I am FC3. I have an atomic repo in my /etc/yum.repos.d with the following:
[atomic]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - Atomic PSA-Compatible RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/yum/repos/

[psa-7.5]
name=Atomic Rocket Turtle - $releasever - SW-Soft PSA 7.5 RPMS
baseurl=http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://www.atomicrocketturtle.com/atomi ... eleasever/
baseurl=http://archive.atomicrocketturtle.com/a ... eleasever/

I was able to download a week or so ago and things were working, but I had to remove qmail-scanner due to mail refusing to send with a qq temporary failure. (I had tried to edit quarantine-attachments.txt to restrict certain attachments and broke something when I followed the instructions of what to do after making a change to the file).

I was never able to yum install qmail-scanner after I removed it. I ended up finding it on my server from the time it did download and got it installed. (Although I'd still like to understand why I can no longer yum install since I'm sure I'll need to in future).

thanks!

For FC3 you just download the <channel>.repo from http://3es.atomicrocketturtle.com/yum/repos/, dont modify them, or try to create one by hand unless you know what you're doing.

ok, thanks very much. I didn't realize it changed from what I thought I'd verified would work and had used a week or two ago - obviously don't know what I'm doing, huh?

again, many thanks for your help, expertise and this repository!
