Also the best way to upgrade a rh 7.3 box is to back it up and reinstall it. It's a long haul from 7.3 to anything reasonably current and the kernel changes alone will make it a very painful process. Seriously, upgrading a 7.3 box would work something like this: 7.3-> centos3/rhel3/fc1 centos3/rhel3/fc1 -> centos4/rhel4/fc3 centos4/rhel4/fc3 -> centos5/rhel5/fc6 fc6->Fedora7 a whole world of no-fun to do that. -sv _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum
