Ah, but "the latest" is a) a moving target, and b) not what I would ever use in a development or production environment, nor at home, unless I really did want to spend time debugging the system. In fact, I'd normally *NOT* ever install an x.0 release - I always wait for at least x.0.1 or x.1, so that all the bugs found by the early adopters have mostly been squashed. mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
