The search service can find package by either name (apache), provides(webserver), absolute file names (/usr/bin/apache), binaries (gprof) or shared libraries (libXm.so.2) in standard path. It does not support multiple arguments yet...

The System and Arch are optional added filters, for example System could be "redhat", "redhat-7.2", "mandrake" or "gnome", Arch could be "i386" or "src", etc. depending on your system.

RPM resource dolly_plus

In administrating a large scale PC cluster, installation and updating both of kernel and utility software to whole the system are very troublesome, especially if the numbers of PC exceeds a hundred. In installation, people usually make dead copies of a hard disk image in which software systems are previously installed and then they are distributed among node PCs by CDs or hard disk themselves. Though some software do such a process through networks, they commonly have an performance bottleneck at server where the original image are hold. A cloning program `dolly' developed in ETH(Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) avoids such bottleneck by using a "ring" type connection rather than 'hub' type connection among one server and many clients. I have extended its concept with multi-threading and pipeline technique. It speeds up installation process very much. One-to-ten copying, for example, finishes in almost same minutes for one-to-one copy. In addition, time out sensing 'bypass' mechanism makes the copy process pretty robust in the case of a client machine trouble.
