I have a situation where the stock repo files that should exist in /etc/yum.repos.d/ (like centos-base.repo) are not present. I need to get them installed. I am sure this is simple, but after hours of searching, it seems I am not googling it correctly.
Basically I have a server with custom repos that are useless to me. I need epel, and epel needs centos-base.repo.
So I'm trying to install the epel repository and then also install the ius repository.
I'm managing this server with chef, and my run list goes
...
"recipe[yum::yum]",
"recipe[yum::epel]",
"recipe[yum::ius]",
...
And it installs the epel repository correctly, contents of epel.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d

How do I install the nagios NRPE plugin on CentOS 5 using yum?
I've tried yum install nagios-plugins but it's only downloading a fraction of a megabyte. Then if I do a search for one of the commands that was supposed to be installed, like check_users nothing comes up.
