Re: CentOS 6.1 release??

Don't hold your breath waiting. If you want a solid and supported distribution, go with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Re: CentOS 6 release??

Maybe if the CentOS team put out some kind of "HOWTO" document about what they do with TUV source RPMS and the process of converting them into CentOS, people would have an insight into what it takes to do what they do, and how it can take this long to happen. Just a suggestion! Oh, and also: Are we ...

Re: Automatically execute a program when file is written

If you want an example written in BASH, I run this script from a cron to monitor a directory for changes and email me when there is one.
