Thanks Jamie. Your suggestion did (of course) work - but it leaves me with some things I don't understand. If I use webmin to "Browse Yum" for "webmin" - both my Centos 4.5 and Centos 5 system return the module: webmin version 1.350-1 Doesn't this mean that both repositories have it? If not - what does it mean? If so - why didn't the "yum install webmin" work? And when it didn't seem to work - why didn't it tell me it couldn't find webmin in the repository? Thanks Jamie Richard. >> Hi - I'm sure I am missing something simple here - but: >> I have a centos 4.5 system running webmin fine.

One possibility is that you were already running the latest version in your YUM repository. You can check this by running : yum list | grep webmin Another possibility is that yum reports installed packages too - I'm not sure if that is the case. - Jamie On 30/Jun/2007 01:25 Richard Chapman wrote .. > Thanks Jamie.
