If so, in the future, please hit the "reply to all" button in your email client, to preserve the threading for the rest of us. I simply went to http://torrent.dulug.duke.edu/ then clicked the link to "local rpms for rhl 7.3, 8.0, 9 and fc1" from that page, I clicked "bittorrent-3.3-0.fdr.2.fc1.noarch.rpm" That downloaded the rpm to my directory of choice. Then, I opened a shell, cd'd to the directory where I saved the rpm, and typed 'rpm -ivh bittorrent' That installed bittorrent. Then after all the frustration I discussed earlier, I simply backed up a page in my browser, and followed the instructions verbatim. I put my computer outside my firewall just long enough to download the files, then hurried back inside the security blanket. :-) - -- Charles Howse Jackson, TN GPG Fingerprint: 02ED 504D 91BD 7724 3571 1640 FD2F 95B0 1F51 30A8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAN/J1/S+VsB9RMKgRAs2YAKCZZ17yq+NdIbYfmtmUBtYTqsNFRwCgkjFp iF0buhsJnl/EqFjCt3M1hc4= =y5d1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
