(time/date, Red Hat network, and offers the chance to install additional rpms.) There is no real need to run it, as far as I know. It will run the first time you boot into run-level 5. It may run if you do "init 5" I'm not sure. It will never run in run level 3. I don't know that you need either. Try uninstalling them, and see what rpm complains about. ;) - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3} in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9szu/n/07WoAb/SsRAuLCAKClxJpZWZ15/x6zlt58Y2aBwazSgACfac2X JYuaClg0Gj19/z8tBsL1zRo= =xm7V -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
