Hello Everyone:
I inherited a CentOS 4.x box that appears to have been installed with
the everything installation option. I would like to strip the box down
of all the unnecessary apps and streamline/secure it. Unfortunately, it
is a production box and it would be quite inconvenient to burn down and
rebuild. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this
conveniently with yum and still leave the box in a production condition
i.e. leave it's needed services up and running?
Thanks,
Ed
Hi -
I've seen this in the past, and I was fortunate enough for the person to
have used the 'yum group*' commands.
You might be able to get rid of software groups which might contain
these pieces of software. Looking for the group* commands associated
with Yum, and you might get lucky, in the same manner that I did.
Thanks!
