<br>I would simply force the install of the perl modules (I do it all the time) with the conflict from the MailScanner installation:<br><br># rpm -Uhv --force /var/cache/yum/rpmforge/packages/perl-Sys-Syslog-0.18-1.rpm<br>
<br>Substitute "rpmforge" above with whatever your repository name is and the RPM file in question.<br><br>Dave<br></div><br>-- <br>Dave Jones
