Configure the services (see documentation at: > http://www.centos.org/docs/5/ ) I think Markku covered it pretty well. The only thing I might add is that *I* like to just download the first CD, then, during installation (which is quite similar to Fedora's) and uncheck everything, including base system. This will give you a minimal installation, suitable for customizing. Many folks don't want X on a server. There is a forum (though not that active) and also a wiki, covering several server aspects. Also Rob, not sure what mailer you're using (maybe a cell phone?), but it gets difficult to tell which text was yours and what was the text to which you were responding, at least when using mutt. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 Buffy: So. You saw their faces, but you can't describe them. Spike: Well, they were human. Two eyes each, kind of in the middle. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
