Hi,

I'd like to use Dag Wieers yam (depo) to mirror the SL repo's.

The product is here:

http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/depo/

I created an sl4.conf file with the following entries (gleamed from the 
centos4.conf file):

### Name: Scientific Linux 4
### URL: https://www.scientificlinux.org/

[sl4]
name = ScientificLinux $release ($arch)
release = 44
#arch = i386 x86_64 ia64 s390 s390x alpha
arch = i386 x86_64
metadata = repomd repoview

### ISO images
iso = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/$release/iso/$arch/SL-
$release-$arch-disc?of4.iso
#os = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$release/os/$arch/CentOS/RPMS/
#sl-base = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/SL/RPMS/

### Additional repositories
sl-errata = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/errata/SL/RPMS/
sl-fastbug = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/errata/fastbugs/RPMS/
##centosplus = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$release/centosplus/
$arch/RPMS/
##extras = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$release/extras/$arch/RPMS/
##addons = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$release/addons/$arch/RPMS/
sl-contrib = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/contrib/RPMS/
##sl-testing = 
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/40rolling/testing/
$basearch/RPMS/
##csgfs = http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$release/csgfs/$arch/RPMS/
##rhaps = ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/RHAPS2/
$basearch/RPMS/

### RPMforge repository
##rpmforge = rsync://apt.sw.be/pub/freshrpms/pub/dag/redhat/el4/en/
$arch/RPMS.dag/
#rpmforge = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/$arch/RPMS.dag/

### OpenVZ repositories
#ovzkernel = http://download.openvz.org/kernel/rhel4/
#ovztemplate = http://download.openvz.org/template/
#ovzutils = http://download.openvz.org/utils/

### Custom repository for your own RPM packages
custom =

Needless to say it fails on each one that's uncommented with errors like:

sl4-i386: Mirror packages from 
ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/$basearch/contrib/RPMS/ 
to /home/Software/yam/sl4-i386/sl-contrib
mirror: Access failed: 550 Failed to change directory. (/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/contrib/RPMS)
yam: Mirroring failed for ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/4x/
$basearch/contrib/RPMS/ with message:
  Failed with return code: 256

Has anyone got this working with SL and if so, can you please supply me the 
conf file you're using?

Thanks.

Michael.
