[CentOS] App add/delete and changing from CD install to LAN
I just added a couple apps to a server and I was asked to insert CD #3. I had wanted to use HTTP to access the distro on my HTTP server. Now I want to install on another server, so I have a second chance to get this right....

It is horribly broken, and provided because the upstream vendor provides the broken app as well. Instead, open up a terminal of your choosing and use yum. -- Jim Perrin System Architect - UIT Ft Gordon & US Army Signal Center

[CentOS] App add/delete and changing from CD install to LAN
-----Original Message----- Well, I KNOW that I updated system z9m9z with yum update, then came back and added BIND (which I left off in the initial install). But it DID fail on system Port3890 when trying to add Thunderbird and a few other odds and ends. I did just install Thunderbird with: yum install thunderbird I will have to figure out what else I had decided add and do that via yum. --------------------------- If you run yum upgrade you should correct any updates that previously were not done properly. First, run yum update to get the most recent repository information, then run yum upgrade.
