Unfortunately you can't just "yum install zendto" as ZendTo requires PHP 
5.2 which is not a standard part of RedHat 5 or CentOS 5. In upgrading 
PHP, depending on quite how you do it, you get either a bunch of 
packages whose name starts with "php-" or else "php52-". And so I would 
have to have a totally separate repo depending on how you upgraded PHP 
to 5.2. :-(

Once CentOS get version 6 out, this problem will disappear. 
Unfortunately they don't seem to be putting much effort into that right 
now, instead concentrating on CentOS 5.6, which is a shame in my view.

Edit zendto.conf and you'll get rid of these. All the ones that 
reference ECS or Southampton are towards the top of that file.Warning:

These errors are usually as a result of failing to follow the 
CentOS/RedHat installation guide here:
