mirroring failures, I now have a __.000db file that when I shut it down

fails, as does an "rpm --initdb"

Just delete the /var/lib/rpm/__* files if you have trouble, there is no need
to do --rebuilddb and definitely not --initdb!

The invalid baseurl thing is a network level yum error that is unrelated to
the rpm __ file stuff. What exactly is it saying about that?
