Success!
Wow, well I turned the Firewall on, and tried it, no go. Then I edited the
dropbox.repo file to put the line feed in, i.e.:
[Dropbox] {must me a linefeed here}
name=Dropbox Repository
baseurl=http://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/$releasever/
gpgkey=https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc
and sure enough, that did it! Also had to restart the template and also the VM.
Andrew thanks for hanging in with me. :)
