I would suggest that you telnet into the server and download the rpms of
the applications/utils that have changed from 6.1 to 6.2... if you go to
rpmfind.net or any other redhat mirror you should find a directory
called updates... this has the updated packages... you can use ncftp or
something similar to get the whole directory onto your server (or else
selectively get the packages you want) and then go about upgrading
them... again this can be done for just the packages you want to upgrade
or using wildcards like "rpm -Uvh *rpm"...
hope this is helpful...
Abhas.
