Hi Les, This is something I need to take into consideration, and I've been looking at many different control panels to see how they handle it, and it seems that a lot of vendors have their own repository, which the client (or setup script) will add to the yum repositories list, and from there I could control the software being used. i.e. If I know my stuff works well on Apache 2.2.0, but not yet on 2.2.3 (for example), I could have the Apache 2.2.0 rpm in my repository, untill such a time that I feel it's ready to add 2.2.3. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
