Hi, If I would like to know the name of a package, for example dhcp, installed on the system, I would run dpkg -l | grep dhcp Most of the time I get the right name and I'm happy. But there are times when the name of the package is so long that I cannot tell what the name is. In that situation if grep through the file /var/lib/dpkg/available and I find the full name. This is just a helpful hint for newbies that may have this problem. Craig Jackson
