[wellylug] Excluding FTP from Yum?

Hi,
I've got some Centos 5.2 servers behind an FTP blocking firewall and  
was wondering if there was a simple way to tell Yum not to use FTP  
(i.e. only HTTP downloads)?

Googling hasn't turned up anything useful beyond turning the  
connection timeout down, which in some cases will cause valid HTTP  
connections to fail.
