hi folx,
i have access to a linux box thru telnet and FTP and was thinking of
upgrading the box thru this medium only. But as i recently discovered, this
is not so easy. When ever i try to install an rpm package (on a REDHAT 8.0
system) thru telnet, it gives me the following error, Any pointers !!!
error: cannot get exclusive lock on /var/lib/rpm/Packages
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Operation not permitted (1)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm
thanx
