We don't have a repo at distros/centos/5.5. But your error message says
it's getting a 403 for distros/centos/5.4... is there a transcription
error in your report?

Thanks,
Richard

No, I tried both Centos 5.4 and 5.5, got the same error.

Is a Centos 5.5 repo planned?

I will amend this to say I was able to update with the Centos 5.4
repo.

Yes, planned, but I've had trouble finding access to a CentOS 5.5 AMI
for EC2. Anybody know of any?
