Re: Running a personal domain

["Scott Berry" <sberry@northlc.com>]

Hi Butch,

Okay here is what you can do.  Now it depends if your installation is local 
or off the web.

To install them locally you do the following:
rpm -i package
where I is install.  Now to do them remotely you do:
rpm -jvh website I believe.  I do mostly local installs so I may have this 
wrong.
