?!? No need for xargs. rpm -Va | tee /tmp/verify.log Commonly if I'm suspicious of a system, I verify just a few rpms, such as: procps net-tools fileutils Takes a lot less time and assures some base utilities might be trustworthy. Then I usually rpm -V rpm or apache to make sure the verify function is still working. Can't be too careful....:) Bill Carlson -- Systems Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Anything is possible, Virtual Hospital http://www.vh.org/ | given time and money.
