Hi Phill,
  Thanks! It worked!
I eliminated both from
/export/rocks/install/rolls/base/7.0/x86_64/RedHat/RPMS/
and replaced mosh from epel.

For the record, I scripted my steps below.
Thanks again.
Eduardo
-------steps---
#cd /export/rocks/install
#
##backup first in case want to reverse procedure
#mkdir basebackup
#mv rolls/base/7.0/x86_64/RedHat/RPMS/protobuf-2.6.1-2.x86_64.rpm
basebackup/.
#mv rolls/base/7.0/x86_64/RedHat/RPMS/mosh-1.2.4-1.x86_64.rpm basebackup/.
#cp -p rolls/base/7.0/x86_64/RedHat/RPMS/index.html basebackup/.
#
##download mosh from epel as replacement
#yumdownloader --enablerepo=epel
--destdir=rolls/base/7.0/x86_64/RedHat/RPMS/ mosh-*
#
##remove protobuf reference from index.html (just in case)
#sed -i '/^<tr><td>$/{:more;$!N;s/\n/&/2;t enough;$!b more;:
enough;s@^<tr><td>\n<a
href="protobuf-2.6.1-2.x86_64.rpm">protobuf-2.6.1-2.x86_64.rpm</a>\n</td></tr>$@@;P;D;}'
