I have an NFS server running SL-6?. I don't know how to determine
the version? I installed it and have been using it without a hitch.
This morning I ran yum update for the first time in months and after
downloading 90+ rpms it produced a long list of errors due to
conflicts, not what I expected?
I don't usually have a keyboard and monitor attached to it, access
from a Fedora-17 box when necessary and that's how I did the yum
update this morning, via ssh. Due to ISP usage limits I need to do
the update in the wee hours, before 05:00.
What have I done wrong?

You'll need to provide more information. What repositories are
enabled? Do you have a sample of which packages are conflicting?

"What repositories are enabled?" I don't think I added any since
installing SL.
"which packages are conflicting?" All 07 apparently.
Perhaps you can see something wrong in the following. I do this
routinely with Fedora and it just works, but not via ssh?
