Evening Ben,
your options are
1: either install rpms to the host then regenerate your skel.
2: install rpms to your skel then after that all virtual servers you create
will contain those packages (example of how to do this follows)
3: install rpms to individual virtual servers you have already created (using
the example below)
rpm as root oviously =>
[root@machinos /root]$ rpm -ivh --root <path to skel/virtual server> [rpm]
ie:
Installing to the skel,
rpm -ivh --root /home/vsd/skel/ nameofpackage-1.4.2.i386.rpm
Installing to a VS,
rpm -ivh --root /home/vsd/vs/vs001 nameofpackage-1.4.2.i386.rpm
We are working on intergrating a tool to look after this procedure for you,
coming soon to a mirror near you. =>
cheers,
Nigel.
