If you then want them back later, just reverse the process. Quick an simple. Even quicker if you make an alias for 'edit-urpm-sources.pl'. Same scenario for adding mulitple sources. You can add a lot of sources, but then use the Manager to en/unable them at will. Makes switching mirrors very easy. The Manager also has a button to select a media and then remove it, but I suggest just disabling a source. You might want it back later ;) You can also enable muliple sources for the same updates. urpmi will auto switch mirrors, if a file or dependant file is missing on one mirror, but present on another. Almost a must for running cooker as playin musical chairs to find a mirror that's up to date and reliable is always a moving target. To a lesser extent the same is true for past and current Mandrake versions and 3rd party sources. Mandrake relies on donated mirror space, sysadmin, and bandwidth so we shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth in that respect ;) -- Tom Brinkman Corpus Christi, Texas Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

When you generate a key a series of questions is asked, name, comment, email add, location etc. For some you must enter the info for others you can accept the default, but for whichever the info has to be entered individually not as a group. If you would prefer to do this with a GUI you can install seahorse which is in Contrib. After launching, from the Key menu select New and then just fill-in the boxes of the resulting pop-up.
