I didn't bother, though, as something else was the server on my LAN, this FC6 box is a DHCP client. I'd find it hard to believe that Fedora 7 didn't have similar packages. You're asking on the wrong list, though. 7 hasn't been released, and this isn't a developers/testers list. But none of what you mentioned would be "default" packages to install, which seemed to be what you were asking. You'd install them if you wanted, and yum'd drag in other bits as needed. -- (This box runs FC6, my others run FC4 & FC5, in case that's important to the thread.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
