How to update the operating system of your VoipNow server

WARNING

Applies to VoipNow 3 and higher!

This article explains how to use yum to update the operating system of the server where VoipNow is installed.

Step-by-step guide

You can update your system with yum without breaking VoipNow. However, we do not recommend using non-standard repositories such as DAG, Livna, ELRepo or Epel because the packages they contain may conflict with VoipNow.

To make a full update, take the following steps:

• STEP 1: Connect to your VoipNow server as root using a SSH client (e.g. Putty).
• STEP 2: Run the following command:

yum update
