Test COW 3.00pl1 Red Hat Package



I'd like some of the Vanilla guys who have a Red Hat Intel box at V5.2
or V6.0 to test my packaging of COW 3.00pl1.

http://quozl.us.netrek.org/cow-3.00pl1-1.i386.rpm

In theory, you should be able to download the rpm file, then type

	# rpm -qip cow-*

to examine the package information, (review this and make comment)

	# rpm -i cow-*

to install it, or if you like;

	# rpm -i http://quozl.us.netrek.org/cow-3.00pl1-1.i386.rpm

to install it directly from the net, and then

	% /usr/games/netrek/cow

to start the client, and up should pop the metaserver window.

It would be better to test it without your .xtrekrc file present.
