<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sorry for the inconvenince created with my off-list question. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In the previous mail, I did not understand to reply also to the <A href="mailto:xymon@xymon.com">xymon@xymon.com</A>.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The output of <STRONG>cat /etc/*release</STRONG> is:<BR><STRONG>Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Carthage)<BR>CM OS Image-Version: 1.20 (created Mon Mar 22 16:12:27 CET 2010)<BR>Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)</STRONG><BR></DIV>
<DIV>So , this is the distribution of linux that I am using and I suppose I should follow the steps from <A href="http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/Xymon.repo">http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/Xymon.repo</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Unfortunately, I cannot simply run the wget http://staff.telkomsa.net/packages/Xymon.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/Xymon.repo<BR>because I cannot <FONT face=Helv size=2><FONT face=Helv size=2>add repos directly to my servers. </FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Helv size=2><FONT face=Helv size=2> </DIV>
<DIV>
<P dir=ltr>So, I have to test the new rpms on test server and only after to push the new rpms via puppet to my target server.</P>
<P dir=ltr> </P></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Can you provide me a link from where I can download the sources or a zip with the package that I need?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you very much.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
