The contents of your dedicated Linux server depends on what kind of Linux distribution you are using: CentOS 4, CentOS 5, Fedora 2, Fedora 4, Fedora 6, Fedora 7 or Red Hat Enterprise 4. Below is an overview of the packages deployed with your server, prior to optional control panel installation.

Dedicated servers with Plesk installed will have different configurations. For more information, see the SWSOFT Plesk datasheet at http://www.swsoft.com/r/pdfs/Datasheets/plesk.pdf.

Dedicated servers with cPanel installed will have different configurations. For more information, see the cPanel datasheet at http://www.cpanel.net/products/cpwhm/cpanel11/cpanel11-ds.pdf.

All servers are deployed with yum and any vendor supplied package may be added to your system by typing:

yum install packagename


where packagename is the name of the package you would like to install.

The Linux rpm command can be used to list the packages that exist on your Linux dedicated server. Its syntax is the following:

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{GROUP} %{NAME}-%{VERSION}\n" | sort
