The parallel stuff actually works the other way. It allows you to push out urpm* commands to multiple machines. ie, if you were the sysadmin of 50 machines, you could be on yours and enter urpmi --parallel company packagename and it would connect to the other 49 machines and install the rpm on them. > Definitely, man page documentation on the parallel options would be nice. It wasn't too difficult to get working the one time I figured it out. But your case is complicated by the fact that it doesn't do what you expected it to. Blue skies...
