I wrote in a thread entitled "ip_conntrack_ftp fails to load on CentOS4.3" that I had what I considered to be a borked upgrade, using yum update. When I went from 4.2 -> 4.3 I ceased to be able to use the ip_conntrack_ftp module, thus cutting off my users from ftp access. What I'd like to do is get yum to rerun its update procedure, which should allow any post processing that failed to complete properly to do so. I'm hoping that will add whatever missing piece is causing me the grief. What I haven't found in my reading is any way to get this to occur. Yum insists that nothing needs to be updated, and the logs seem to show it. Yet here I am with the one server that actually needs to have ftp access, without it. Things were working fine until the fateful yum update run. I've considered using rpm -F to refresh the files, but from what I can see that won't work. The switch only causes existing packages to be updated. I just don't see any switches in rpm or yum that will enable me to do what I want to attempt. Does anyone know of a wait to cajole yum to do my bidding? Thanks! Barry
