Hi Friends,
Being working with linux for some days. i upgraded my system (p!!! 500mhz , 810 motherboard , 256 mb ram ) with red hat 8.0, now i was doing some r&d, installing squid, appache etc i tryed uninstaling squid by tying #rpm -e squid*.*

rpm -e squid
squid*.* will be expanded by the shell to all files in the current directory that match that pattern. This may expand to the null list.
So what should i mention that will uninstall squid is it #rpm -e squid.2.1.4.rpm
and what about XMMS not working in red hat 8.0,
By the thanks for ur reply

'rpm -e squid' ought to work on RH systems. If it does not, try doing an 'rpm -qi squid'. If this results in a message saying "package squid is not installed", do a 'rpm -qa |grep squid' and see if you get anything in the output. If you do not, either squid is not installed, or else you have a corrupted rpm database (likely). RPM does have some unlovely features that bring its very distant and very ugly cousin, the Windoze registry, to mind.
In case of the latter, you have to rebuild the RPM database. For this, su to root, and run 'rpm --rebuilddb', and then again try 'rpm -qi squid' to verify that the rpm database again recognizes squid. You can then safely run rpm -e to remove squid.
If this too does not work, you're going to have to remove Squid's bits and pieces manually (I think).
HTH,

No one else clips that out of their replies. Why should I?

Mentioning doesn't work. Hinting doesn't work. Try giving a command.
is it #rpm -e squid.2.1.4.rpm
That might do it. You could also try rpm -qi squid and find out the name of the package.
and what about XMMS not working in red hat 8.0,
If it was Debian, I'd say apt-cache search esd, and then apt-get install the appropriate package. On RH, you might try rpm -q esd. But of course everything depends on the definition of "not working". Maybe you need to install xmms.
and what about XMMS not working in red hat 8.0,
yes, I've faced this issue with RH8 before. I downloaded XMMS from RHN, it didn't work. It seems there's a problem with their playlist functionality....
Anyways, deleting .xmms from ~ should do the trick after downgrading XMMS.
ah

you need to install mp3 plugin from xmms.org, BTW this is a *very* common and often asked question by many newbies installing RH 8.0, I wish people see google first for questions as simple as this.
