[SLUG] How to force

Sluggers, how does one force the removal of a corrupted rpm? (NB "--force" option is only good for install). I've got problems with openssh on a box and I'm trying to get rid of it so I can re-install it. (It's working fine on my other boxen). # rpm --erase openssh-server-2.1.1p4-1

Re: [SLUG] Access control

I'd do this with a series of CGIs, that add/remove records to/from the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files (and kill -HUP inetd or whatever after a change). This'll be much more configurable than doing it a the ipchains level. For a start, you'll be able to send a 'Sorry, access denied' message
