Good point to make. I normally create ~/root as software root for installation: mkdir ~/{bin,etc,lib,mnt,tmp,share} Compile software with: ./configure --prefix=/home/gordon/root make I also tend to SUID root smbmount and smbumount so that I can use LinNeighborhood to mount windows shares in ~/mnt/SERVERNAME/SHARE. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
