Bear with me here...
I have a large mandrake image.

I SSH into the host as root.

type vncserver ...
get command not found..

OK

try uprmi install vncserver

this fails because urpmi is looking for the CD's.

Problem is : what is the file that need editing to change urpmi sources ?
and more importantly, what editor can I use from the console ?

I don't have a copy of Mandrake to play around with, but I know you can use apt-get with it. Try this: http://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org/
