I've heard that Ensim is more fragile than is Plesk, but the information I have is only anecdotal. However my experience with Red Hat RPMs is that within a distribution release they don't upgrade to another version; they just patch the versions originally distributed (hence the "dash" numbers). This hasn't broken Plesk for us, and I'm not sure why it should break Ensim.

Which is why I thought you were writing that Ensim used the same names as Red Hat. And I stand by what I wrote in response: > > That should only happen if Ensim has their own RPMs with the same names > > as the RH RPMs. Plesk RPMs have different names and we've never had a > > problem with anything being overwritten. So if I'm missing something, I'm open to your further explanation <smile>. As of this morning I'm seriously looking at the "http://www.directadmin.com/"; which someone mentioned on (I think) the Cobalt Facts list (but it might have been this one). Based on what I read on their site they should work as long as you update with standard RHL RPMs. Jeff -- Jeff Lasman, nobaloney.net, P. O.
