I went to the page referenced above and followed all the directions and everything seemed to work perfectly. Then I went to the Mandrake Control Center Update utility, selected everything I could, and it's currently downloading the packages. So, from now on all I have to do is visit that Update utility periodically to keep Mandrake updated? Can the same thing be set up for individual applications? What about automatic update checking so I don't have to visit the utility? - Grant
