Thank you Johnny and Lorenzo! Much, much appreciated. I do feel silly just asking for general advice, and not Googling (I am, but time is restricted) but I need to get up to speed using CentOS instead of Deb ASAP.. as our servers are deployed next week. Thank you so much again, I shall get reading!

All,

Apologies for cluttering the list, but I just wanted to say hello and prepare all for a barage of silly discussions from a tech-hypochondriac! We have recently purchased two servers running CentOS, and as I'm from more of a Debian based background, it would be good if someone could point out the two or three main differences please? I'm reading up on the package management as I type, but any quick tips and tricks for (web) server admin with CentOS would be magic.

Sorry for being cheeky! Hope everyone is well, too.

Well, Welcome :)

My 2 cents:

1) "yum list all > yla && yum info all > yia" for offline searching and info reading of packages

2) "grep system-config yla" and you'll find the main tools for configuring the system

3) Setup the priorities "http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities" and add new repository "http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories?action="">

4)
http://wiki.centos.org

5) google

99) when anything else fails: ask this list ;)

Regards

Lorenzo Quatrini
