That's why I suggested you request edit rights for one or more of the pages you have suggested be substantially changed. The usual route to global rights is to do some good work on specific targets, usually with a new page, or pages, and to become known to the -docs list members. For new pages it is usually (IMHO) a good idea to put a draft out for review by the list, even for established members with global edit rights. My suggestion for Rob is a page that really needs a maintainer and significant editorial work, due to age induced rotting -- HowTo Install Java on CentOS 4 and CentOS 5 [1]. It is a page (as a whole) that regularly receives a black look from me whenever it comes into my view and is, I know, a page that Russ regards as an example of poor wiki practice. Alan.

[CentOS-docs] update HOWTO page for how to copy ssh pub keys
here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Network/SecuringSSH the recipe for how to copy your id_rsa.pub file to a remote system is given as: Copy the public key (id_rsa.pub) to the server and install it to the authorized_keys list: $ cat id_rsa.pub ~/.ssh/authorized_keys i suspect it would be better if that were rewritten in terms of using ssh-copy-id, just to be simpler and less error-prone. rday -- Robert P.

So we might want to provide an option for both cases ? ah, good point. i suspect the most effective rewrite would be 3 parts: * a general description of what is being done, files involved, what's copied, proper file/dir permissions for it to work properly, etc. * the manual way it's done on centos 4 * the newer, simpler centos 5 way involving ssh-copy-id and that would do it. rday -- Robert P.

Like Russ, I also have checked (somewhat quickly) and found nothing obvious in the archive. Do you recall who it was who declined the request? Essentially, no person gets immediate global edit rights.
