There are 2 problems with this: 1. Frequently, the desktop applet that says updates are available doesn't end up giving you a server where the updates are present. Yes, you can keep re-launching up2date until you get a server that has the updates, but it's annoying. 2. The performance downloading from a site in Brazil isn't as good as downloading from within the United States. I expect the folks in Brazil have the same problem with United States sites. -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program
