well, to stay within their repos' you are stuck with things like
PHP-5.1.6, tomcat -5.5.20 etc..
I must also say that I was a Debian sysadmin for the last 5 years before
getting this job, so I am no expert at RPMs, and am having a hard time
adjusting to YUM... On a server with no GUI, dselect was my best
friend ... far more intuitive than what I have see of YUM... but that
may be my inexperience with the RPM system showing ;)

well it did install of a FC7 system, but will not install on the CentOS
system. that is what is driving me a bit nuts. I understand that Fedora
and RHEL (centOS) are different, but CentOS seems a loooong way
behind ..
