CentOS 5.11 patches no longer avilible

[Anonymous user]

I am installing PCNS_4.2_OVF10.ova. One of the 1st things to do is run 'yum update', this is failing because the CentOS 5.11 is no longer supported/maintained. Is there a newer version? If not when is the next release due out?

Thx,

Scott,

We are working with VMware on this and I hope to have a update soon.

To get the latest patches available you could change the repo url's, but please note that the OS is not patched anymore (security challenge). With the above link you get at least yum working again. But only for the patches between the release of PCNS4.2 and the EOS date of CentOS 5.11
