Updates do have issues too. The default setting is every hour. Checking for an update at least once a day is not bad as a bug fix can come in at anytime. I would think that is very important for the server. As for updates with issues, so far none, but I guess they will happen. I slimmed down my system, and continue to do so, in the hopes that the less stuff running, the less problems updating. So far though, no problems with any update so far. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
