The file which I pass is not part of the rpm.I =>did some googling but couldn't find any. => =>Thanks & Regards => =>Lis I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but if I do get your drift, look at the xargs command. For example, content of file foo is xxx yyy zzz xargs echo < foo will print xxx yyy zzz If you want it to execute a seperate command for each argument then just use -n. e.g. xargs -n 1 < foo In your case, something like xargs rpm -ivh will get you started. -- Time flies like the wind.
