    PICO is a powerful program
    and its a very useful to admin the server

    first check for the pine packge ( its the pacge that pico is )

    this by
    from SSH write


     rpm -q pine 
    PHP:

    u should see this message which mean that the pine packge is not install on ur server
    packge pine is not installed

    know write the following instruction:

    
     wget ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/9/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/pine-4.44-18.i386.rpm 
    
    PHP:
    then write;


     rpm -Uvh pine -4.44-18.i386.rpm
    PHP:


    know u can use the pico for editting any file on server

    I prefer nano, and nano is installed by default in minimal setting in CentOS 4-5 already

    Any search engine can if you introduce such query ;)

    I prefer WinSCP's default editor, a great Windows SSH utility.

    By the way, wget is mostly a command for Debian and Ubuntu distros because Fedora and CentOs is yum.

    Or is it possible with wget?... I'm not sure but I think I tried once after moviing from Debian to CentOs and wget didn't work.. since then I only "yum" :)

    I am not sure to understand what you want.
    wget is used for getting files
    yum for installaing software.

    If you are looking for *yum* on Debian, it's apt-get, not wget

    Ah... now is clear to me, thanks a lot gate2vn

    I like to learn with practice and I have tried most of the distros available on my dedicated server, overtime that led me to commands confusion :)
