Where would one get the RPMs? rpmfind.net is decent. > I need the Linux ps and useradd. ps is in the "procps" package. The instances I've needed ps, I've just used the FBSD version, otherwise you'll need to mount the linux emulator procfs(man linprocfs). Chances are it's just part of the startup/shutdown scripts, and a little tweaking of the parameters is all that's needed. I haven't used the linux useradd under emu, so can't comment. > This is my first toe into the Linux world.

Even if running from the linux sh, it's a good idea to use "--root /linux/compat" on the rpm command line to insure everything linux ends up under the /compat/linux branch. IIRC, installing the linux procps will blow away the FBSD procps if you don't. Jerry __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
