The pptp repository doesn't seem to work with 5.4.  yum list times out:

 
 http://poptop.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel5/i386/repodata /primary.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 4] Socket Error: (104, 'Connection reset by peer')
 Trying other mirror.
Same problem for other mirrors.

 rpming from it times out:
 rpm -ivh http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel5/pptp-release- current.noarch.rpm
 Retrieving http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/rhel5/pptp-release- current.noarch.rpm
 error: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.MLsFA7: headerRead failed: hdr blob(7575): BAD, read  returned 3568
 error: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.MLsFA7 cannot be installed

wget gets a percentage, times out, gets some more, times out, etc.
Visiting with browser loads some and then times out

from non-5.4 machines things seem to go smoothly, of course I don't install
from there because it is the wrong version.

I talked to the people at Sourceforge for a while.  They did some tests and
then said everything there was OK, so it might be something with the pptp
part  (e.g., pptpclient). I did try various IP connections and MTU sizes
set., none of which worked.

Any known problems with the pptp site and CentOS 5.4?  Could it be a 5.4
error? Stuff from other repositories seems to yum install OK.  Here is my repo:
