 LON-CAPA system releases currently are not released under version
 numbers given the fast pace of system development.  To upgrade your
 system, you need to 
-<OL>
-<LI>Make sure your software packages are up-to-date (based on install.lon-capa.org).
-<UL>
-<LI>As root, run the script <A HREF="http://install.lon-capa.org/verify/scripts/loncapaverifypackages">
-loncapaverifypackages</A>.  This script should be present on your system in the file
-/usr/sbin/loncapaverifypackages.  If packages are out-of-date, this script will output
-the out-of-date packages.  Packages that this script identifies as "should not be here",
-are packages that you may wish to remove to improve system security.  (These packages
-may represent important modifications of your institution, so do with care.  Removing
-packages is done with the command: <TT>rpm -e --nodeps PACKAGE_NAME</TT>.

-<LI>Upgrade old software packages.

-you can individual download each package from the world-wide web.  You then need to enter the command:
-<TT>rpm -Uvh --force PACKAGE_RPM_FILE_NAME</TT> to upgrade your system.

+</ul>
+<li>Make the LON-CAPA base files up to date (based on
+install.lon-capa.org).</li>
+<ul>
+<li><B>[optional]</B> Run the script
+<tt>/usr/sbin/loncapaverifybasepackage</tt>.  Then view
+/home/httpd/html/dev/index.html for the verification report.
+If there are no real changes, then you do not need to make your files
+up-to-date.</li>
+<li>Download the most recent LON-CAPA rpm (<a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/3.1/loncapafiles/LON-CAPA-base-3.1-1.i386.rpm">

 see messages appear on your screen such as:

-<BR>You can probably just type in commands like:
-<BR><TT>cp /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf.rpmsave /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf</TT>
-<BR>to restore your configurations.  However, it is worthwhile to use the 'diff' command
-to make sure that you are not accidentally losing important updates to the configuration
-files.  
-<LI>Alternatively, you can run /usr/sbin/<A HREF="http://www.lon-capa.org/install/verify/scripts/loncaparestoreconfigurations">loncaparestoreconfigurations</A> to "smartly" run through the system and restore LON-CAPA configuration values.

-do all of this automatically.  <B>This definitely should NOT be implemented on a system that students

-<TT>cp /usr/sbin/<A HREF="http://www.lon-capa.org/install/verify/scripts/loncapaautoupgrade">loncapaautoupgrade</A> /etc/cron.daily/loncapaautoupgrade</TT>

+<h3>Future Upgrade Procedure (not yet implemented)</h3>
+<p>
 In the future, LON-CAPA will be a versioned system that is released via CD.
 The upgrade procedure will be to insert the CD and follow instructions.  The CD
 upgrade procedure is already defined and somewhat implemented, but awaits
 completion.
