The way that I've done it is to grab one of the packages off of PKGMASTER that is similar to what I want to do and then modify it to meet my needs. By similar I mean not only the correct architecture (raq 3,4, qube 2 etc) but also a similar software package. For example, if your software is binary, get a package that is also binary, if your package is a cgi get a package that offer's a cgi. As you've probably noticed, you can take a pkg file and untar it with: tar zxvf packagefile.pkg You'll also need to be up to speed on how to make an RPM file. If you need help with that, start by looking at a SRC rpm. You can install them with rpm -i file.src.rpm and the files go to /usr/src/redhat/... Look for the SPEC file in the SPECS folder. You can also do an internet search for "Maximum RPM" and you an online version of the book. -- Matthew Nuzum www.bearfruit.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
