Please see:

It gives a good overview of rpmnew and rpmsave files and how you might want to handle them.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, I thought it would be something like that.

Now if I choose to update or change things on the .txt showed with the new one would this affect hosting or how the server works?
How important is this ossec-hids and rootkit_trojans.txt?
