Well, life is not that black and white, luckily ;)
Try authenticating with PHP to MySQL using certificates. That won't work
with the current PHP release shipped with RHEL/CentOS. There's a bug in
PHP 5.1 and it's fixed in 5.2. Since this is not a security bug, but
just missing (of wrongly implemented) functionality, it's probably not
going to be back ported.
Since certificates (and PKI) are a pretty hot item these days, an
upgrade can be very useful.
Just an idea that upgrading is not always about having the latest and
greatest.. ;)
Cheers,
Bart
