It has been 6 years since I set up my Linux server and have hardly had to touch it in all of those years other than running yum update, so I ma rusty in some of the fine details (especially at 72).
I located a source for the php-mcrypt rpm (php-mcrypt-5.1.6-15.el5.centos.1.i386.rpm), however, isn't there an easier method to get and install the appropriate rpm - other than downloading it then running rpm? And when should I use yum rather than rpm?
For those of you that use Linux daily, these are very simple question, and for that please accept my apologies.
