    I was just doing some work on the server, when I found some instructions that prompted me to run yum update. I was careful and noticed it will update the following packages:

    Code:
    ==========================================================================================

    My question is, is it safe to run yum update outside of the Centminmod menu, or can this cause conflicts?
