I haven't but I installed apt-get for rpm last week and it upgraded a buncha stuff for me when I ran it last night. my only redhat system is behind 2 firewalls and a NIDS, and I am the only person who has an account(home network) so I'm not *too* concerned about security on it. so I reccomend grabbing apt-get and using it when up2date is not available, or if your really serious about using redhat get a RHN account. I only have redhat so I can play with it, my main systems are all debian. or you could always get the upgrades the old fashioned way by downloading them via ftp. nate -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
