The more complex the software, the more reason it should be RPM packaged for sheer management reasons. Asterisk is a perfect example. Especially if you are deploying it en masse via a kickstart. Otherwise, when you go to upgrade, you'll really hate life. ;) > I have to install the 1.6.0.6 version... Here's a concept. Download the SRPMS (.src.rpm) of the Asterisk 1.6.0.5 version, install it**, do the minimal edits to the SPECS/asterisk.spec** file for it to point to 1.6.0.6, plop the Asterisk 1.6.0.6 tarball into SOURCES/**, and give it a try. I'm sorry, it's _so_easy_ to rebuild for a simple revision/patch-level change when the SPEC file already exists. Learn how to do this. -- Bryan **NOTE: By default, it will install to /usr/src/redhat. You can change this behavior with a .rpmmacros file and the %topdir directive, so you can build elsewhere (including as a regular user instead of root). Take the time to learn basic RPM building, especially when you already have a SPEC file that is virtually "ready-to-use." That makes it extremely easy. -- Bryan J Smith Senior Consultant Red Hat GPS SE US mailto:bjs@xxxxxxxxxx +1 (407) 489-7013 (Mobile) mailto:b.j.smith@xxxxxxxx (non-RH/ext to Blackberry) -------------------------------------------------------- You already know Red Hat as the entity dedicated to 100% no-IP-strings-attached, community software development.
