I want to update it to red hat 7.3 remotely. it has webmin installed. can anybody tell me how? thanks charlie. ckpeter 08-15-2002, 11:37 AM Any reason why you want 7.3 over 7.1? Most of the time, you just have to upgrade the packages to a newer version.

For software packages, use RPM, especially since you are using redhat. Peter asyui8 08-15-2002, 06:18 PM thanks. ckpeter 08-15-2002, 06:25 PM No Problem. Glad to help. Peter |
