Yes, I am sure that is the best route. I asked first on the CentOS mailing list because I could create top-level folders under CentOS-5, But have been unable to under CentOS-6. (Actually, it could have been a more recent change to kdepim, as I didn't try to create a new top-level folder until recently.) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin
