I often use locate (or really, Actions menu -> Search for files) to get a clue. "locate ntpd" turns up a few things, including some initscripts and /etc/sysconfig/ntpd. If I think I know the package name I try "yum info ntp". If I'm not quite sure but have a guess I try "yum list \*ntp\*". When I have little clue I try "yum search ntpd". If that doesn't work I may try "yum provides ntpd". (Unfortunately the string "ntp" appears many places so there is /lots/ of output, and "yum provides network time" works as badly as the stock apropos, printing all the matches for "network" and all the matches for "time".) ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@georgeanelson.com> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
