I think you will always need to support http or ftp because of corporate firewalling rules. Therefore, decreasing the rpm file size needs to be considered. Mandrake srpms are almost always smaller than RH. That really helps downloading. And I'm sure that helps take the load off the servers, too. -Steve Grubb __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Take Yahoo! Mail with you!
