thanks.. i'll try that too... i did all the possible options. i tried NFS install (sat up an NFS server and exporting directories) and ftp install from another linux box that had the RedHat files copied from an ISO. in both cases it fails to connect. and i know that the ftp account works. i can ftp to it from the command line on the same box i'm trying to install the 7.3. but the installer fails to connect. i'm starting to have serious doubts that one can install RH 7.3 from anything else but the CDs you buy... anyway thanks... i guess nobody from redhat actually reads the posts on this list... > > -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
