Actually most of the systems where I really need this are running Centos 3.x (did I mention I didn't like bleeding edge surprises?) which still has the old version of --downloadonly, but I'm trying to collect the information I need so I won't have problems when they are updated to something newer. So, what I'm really looking for is where to find this sort of thing if it is documented anywhere. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
