[Yum] headbeating continues

[garrett.allen at comcast.net]

alas, my lab is not the same as production.  in the lab it was a prepending urls and removing that from the client conf resolved the problem.  not so in production.  i did what i did in the lab but results are different.  i have researched the problem and will contiue to try various combos, but i've fairly exhausted the obvious.

thanks.
