As long as SEC itself is concerned, there is no big difference -- you will get the same code both from the package and tarball. The installation is easy in both cases -- since SEC is written Perl and doesn't rely on any other software, you need a single command line to either install the package or to copy SEC from a tarball to a relevant directory. As you already mentioned, latest tarball always provides you with the latest version (which is often not the case for the latest package). However, installing SEC from a package has also several advantages: 1) you will usually get startup and stop scripts for your platform, 2) sample configuration files and directories are created in your system, 3) you can use all the features of your package management system (like automatic software updates). If you would like to use SEC in a large environment, you can also create your own package from the latest tarball. The tarball contains some sample startup scripts that might help you in the process of creating the package. hth, risto > > Thanks again for the support, > > Fabiano > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Abra sua conta no Yahoo!
