Question... can you dedicate one machine to run a local service that helps you keep track of the packages installed across multiple machines? As in when someone acting as a local administrator on a desktop installs something via Add/remove would you be willing to run a central service that 'sees' those additional packages and adds that to a aggregate list or database that you can then use to install the same software on other machines which should have it? Would that give you the sort of control you are looking for? Individuals control their own desktop software and then new software additions can propogate through to additional machines through a central aggregate service which keeps track of who is installing what on their desktops. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
