These look like network issues to me. Exact error messages would help.

What do you mean by "sources"? Are you using Debian terminology for
repositories? If yes, then "/etc/yum.repos.d/" is indeed the right
place.
If it is indeed a repo mirror problem, the output of the following
should help.
$ yum repolist
Check if you the "baseurl" line is commented out in the enabled repo
files in /etc/yum.repos.d/. For more info you can look at
`man yum.conf'.
Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for.
Cheers,
Phil...
