Red Hat 5.10 repository issue - desktop version
this is proving to be a real pain to set up. i recently installed red hat 5.10 desktop version.

install went well. i've registered my system, but i cant seem to yum install simple packages.

i can install some packages, but many others i cant. for instance, i cant do a:
Code:
yum install php

yum search php

when i do, i get a:

Code:
no package php available

anything else i can try? i've enabled everything that has "enabled = 0" in the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory and that still didn't help.
