Right - sorry, the new server's 6.3. Actually, I've just tried, and must be missing something, because now doing just what you suggested, which I *thought* I'd done before, it only wants to install ruby-libs, not iputils, nor, for that matter, graphviz-(whatsit). My manager figures that there's a ruby script in ibutils, which makes sense. mark, unimpressed with the faddish language of the year _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
