Ya by default they are installing POSTFIX (BLAH) instead of sendmail, as
well as Roxen and Apache together (I only use vi so never did the pico
thing) So your best bet is to do a custom or expert install and take the
time to go through the packages and select the ones you want. It is worth
the time.
Also you can install RPM's via webmin just open your browser and go to
http://localhost:10000 and use root as the username and the password you set
for root. Webmin rocks makes my life soo soo much easier.
