Okay, i just reverted my up2date back to a stock install on FC1. I can't reproduce this. I do remember a problem early on in FC1 involving the redirects at the official fedora download site. But my understanding is the problem was serverside and affected all the clients who were using the default urls. I'm going to mark this as WORKSFORME and close the bug report. Please try to reconfirm this problem and report back to this bug report. AFAICT this was a temporary problem on the server, and this particular problem should no longer be an issue (no comment about other problems you might have with the default urls)
I am so glad, that it works for you. Unfortunately I have to give this a WORKSFORMENOT status. Maybe the URL's are wrong? --- yum fedora-core-1 http://fedora.redhat.com/releases/fedora-core-1 yum updates-released http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/released/fedora-core-1 yum updates-testing http://fedora.redhat.com/updates/testing/fedora-core-1 -- So far I checked "fedora-core-1" and get the following errors.

The proxy might be the problem.... Have to try to find people or other reports that can confirm proxy as the problem.
