    After successful install the centos, need to update some patches/program/software, refer below command to run YUM update:

    # yum list updates
    (to display list of updated software)

    # yum update
    (To download and install all updates)

    # yum update {package-name-1}
    (Check for and update specified packages)
    eg:
    # yum update httpd
    (To check for and update httpd package)

    we sometimes the client wanted to have GUI so because our centos installation cd was only the 1st installation cd, we have to install Gnome separately...hehe
