im trying to install yum and this is what i see:
[root@yx6798-vps ~]# rpm -Uvh yum-2.0.3-0.fdr.1.rh90.noarch.rpm
warning: yum-2.0.3-0.fdr.1.rh90.noarch.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 8df56d05

and:
[root@yx6798-vps ~]# cd setups
[root@yx6798-vps setups]# rpm -ivh yum-2.4.0-1.src.rpm

the latest version of python seems to be installed what could be wrong?

rpm -q python (i think) to see what version is running, if it isn't 4.1.1 then download it and install that :)
oh, and you DON'T want a hosting-ie vps for a seedbox, the qos system kills the connection (accounces don't go through) when your up is anything close to 1mb/s

I did use their vps with shared gbit. I did get up to 20MB/s up and down if i only seed 1 torrent.

l
In utorrent 20MB/s
But only when i did seed 1 torrent. They did have 3 vps that shared a masterserver that did have Gbit connections.
But the hardware was pretty slow so seeding more then 3 torrents did not work very well.

bottom line if you want something good dont buy vps :)
