What about the GnoRPM? With the webfind feature, I think it's the
easiest wat to find the updates you need? Or is that the part about
"pawing through a checklist of 100's?" And what is this autorpm you
speak of? I am not familiar with it, but am eager to learn. Where can I
find this? is it on my 6.1 machine? Is it something I need to
download? Inquiring minds want to know. ;-)
