Only thing I can possibly see wrong with that is you'd need rpm Indeed, the GPL *only* requires they provide the source to people they've provided the binaries to. RH offers the source to *anyone*, thus going a bit *beyond* the GPL in that regard. What most fail to realize is that RH in RHEL have a few things such a a JRE they is NOT under GPL. Take those out, take out the RH Trademarks, and you can build/use/distribute the resulting distribution yourself. To lazy/busy to do that? Well, that's your choice. -- Bill Anderson RHCE #807302597505773 bill@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
