Personally, I think cobbler overkill if all you want to do is have a local copy of the CentOS repo for updates and occasional installations. I just mirror the os/ and updates/ trees (about 20G for CentOS 5.4). I point lighttpd at the root of the mirror tree, enable directory listings, and push a standard CentOS-Base.repo file that points to the local mirror to all my CentOS machines. -- Paul Heinlein <> heinl...@madboa.com <> www.madboa.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

There's no real equivalent, but the "service" command is the main method of starting/stopping processes/daemons. In itself it doesn't do what the start-stop-daemon does, but the scripts associated with the service utility can be customized to mimic some similar functions. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

That depends on your reason for not being root to start.
