Hello;

I'm new to the Linux world, and I have just inherited 3 linux severs. I keep 
getting this email from one of the servers

/etc/cron.daily/yum.cron:

error: unpacking of archive failed on file /etc/httpd/logs: cpio: rename 
failed - Is a directory

I can see it's trying to update the httpd.i386 0:2.0.52-22.ent.centos4, but 
it can't.

I ssh to the server and run the following commands

yum clean headers
yum clean packages

and then

yum update

I receive the same error message. Any help would be much appreaciated.

Thanks

Larry
