Jim, If you want to update regularly, the easiest way to do it is to use svn. Assuming you want to use the 6.2.x branch, and slimserver is in /usr/local/slimserver, do something like this: # Stop slimserver cd /usr/local mv slimserver slimserver.2006-01-20 # or whatever svn co http://svn.slimdevices.com/repos/slim/trunk/BRANCH_6_2_x mv BRANCH_6_2_x slimserver-BRANCH_6_2_x ln -s slimserver-BRANCH_6_2_x/server slimserver # Start slimserver Now, whenever you want to upgrade, simply do: cd /usr/local/slimserver-BRANCH_6_2_x svn up # restart slimserver HTH, R. _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
