Sorry if you get this as a dupe but after about 14 hours... it hasn't appeared. 

Got a wild hair up my other side and tried this.

# rpm -qip
http://mandrake.secsup.org/Mandrake/9.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/Apache-ASP-2.37-3mdk.noarch.rpm

(this is all one line but my line wrap messed it up.) And it worked!.
Note that this is a 9.0 rpm and I typed it into an 8.0 box so there is
no way it read it locally.


if you do rpm -qpl and then the http link you get all the files that
that package will install.
