Having used apt for some time and wanting to migrate to yum, I am attempting to find equivalent commands. Under apt I could set the "hold" variable in /etc/apt/apt.conf so that apt would not download certain packages. The developer did not want apache, php or mysql updated. We ran everything from source and sometimes the rpms got installed. I noticed there is something called "exclude" under the yum man pages. Any examples available for running this and excluding certain packages from being updated? Thanks. KJ -- /------------------------------------\__/-------------------------\ | Kerry J.
