Not through the gui on the machine, but through the website (https://rhn.redhat.com) you can schedule installation of packages not currently on the machine. The packages you select on the website would be installed within two hours. Much easier to use the command line version of up2date to do this unless you have dozens of machines to install a package on. -- Chris Kloiber -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
