The following page > is for Centos, but explains the principle. I'm using priorities myself, on my OpenNMS/nagios/cacti CentOS 5 monitoring box. But priorities is a newbie thing? A default thing? If it were default (and it's been so long since I've used anything default that it might be and I don't know it) and a default set of priorities were provided (or a very conspicuous notice with the repository setup stating that priorities needs to be set up before using the repo) then perhaps it might be a useful newbie solution. -- Lamar Owen www.pari.edu
