It's a good idea to incorporate this into your backup strategy, as it can help recover or rebuild your system. My backup script includes: rpm -qa > $WorkDir/rpmlist 2>&1 rpm -qia > $WorkDir/rpmdesc 2>&1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer http://thekramers.net DK KD There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The DKK D knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground DK KD and miss. All it requires is simply the ability to throw DDDD yourself forward with all weight, and the willingness not to mind that it's going to hurt. That is, it's going to hurt if you fail to miss the ground.
