We discuss it in a CentOS context here: owlriver.com/tips/non-root owlriver.com/tips/patching_srpms The Guru Labs tutorial material are linked, and a local copy also maintained at: oldrpm.org/howto which are also well thought of by me.> appreciate if someone can hrlp me and detail me some steps or give me so > possible links tht gonna be of help > thnks and apprecite > Regards > simonGood luck -- let us know how your efforts progress. -- Russ Herrold
