Gentlemen, I have a question regarding yum groupinstall vs just using yum install. I have been reading tutorials online (for example how to run a Centos LAMP). Most of the tutorials have examples to install httpd, mysql, etc using yum install httpd.... The reason for this e-mail is that I noticed in yum grouplist that there is an option to install Web Server, MySQL database server, etc. Question: Is there any advantage to using yum groupinstall for a webserver as opposed to using yum install httpd? I am just curious why most online docs dont mention groupinstall and only reference installing each app manually one by one. Any information would be appreciated
