Interesting problem here...perhaps. I just upgraded about 6 machines this morning after syncing a local yum server with no problems...until I get to my personal laptop of course. I did the usual: yum update yum yum update It went about half way through and then the terminal seemed to just die. It just sat there stuck in limbo. I let it go for about 30 minutes and it never moved, so I killed the terminal, but yet yum was still running as a process which I had to kill. Reluctantly I rebooted, and everything came up ok, but I'm very hesitant to believe that things are tip-top. Is there anything I can do or anyway I can check anything to double check things are actually fine? The /etc/redhat-release shows ok: cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 4.4 (Final) I've been watching top and all that good stuff. All my services appear ok as well, but call me paranoid because I'm convinced something has to be wrong. Should I stop with my paranoia and just chalk it up to my bash session died, yum completed ok, but hung afterwards? Thanks!
