I totally agree w/u, rpms are just not a good idea... what I really hate in the newer releases is the retarded unnecessary security changes, I enable sshd when I was installing MDK9.1 and then when it comes up, the goddamn shorewall fw blocks it. Or for example I want to modify /etc/hosts.deny, the stupid msec script ran by cron rewrites it. Same story w/RH8, they have their own independent sendmail security "patch" rpm on it, u cant just get rid of sendmail, u need to get rid of the security packages that come w/it and then maybe if u install postfix or something, then maybe just maybe u can get port 25 opened up... looks like Linux distros are going towards the, "lets not trust the user" hole which msft is stuck in, "users are dumb, dont let them change anything" I can go on and on about this, rather stop right here..... BSD baby, BSD!!!!
