How to install Screen

[ed146]

Please kindly point me to documentation on how to install Screen on my dedicated server and which version to download. I have found a place to download screen but there were multiple versions of it.

I would need a step by step instruction on how to install screen as I am a beginner at linux.
I am running centOS 4.3

Many thanks in advance,

Daniel

assuming x86, download from one of the links here:
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/2790395/com/screen-4.0.2-5.i386.rpm.html

then upload to your server OR download directly to your server in /usr/local/src or wherever then type "rpm -i thesuperduperlongfilename.rpm"

and it's installed. are you sure it isn't on there already?

EDIT: actually this filename isn't too long for once

nope, I typed screen then it says -bash screen not found

You should be able to run "yum install screen" and have it installed automatically.

[get]

yum install screen
up2date -i screen

on fedora and centos as root.
