All of the 4.x line will update seamlessly with yum. There really is no effective difference between 4.1 or 4.2 except that an ISO image was made at the point where "4.2" was released. So, any/all of the 4.x line can be updated seamlessly to the latest release with yum without any special options.
I don't know about `yum upgrade`, I've never done that.

I'm still trying to get an idea about how best to handle patches on CentOS.
Say I want to apply security patches automatically on a nightly basis. But when the push from 4.2 to 4.3 comes around, I want to defer that for when I can do it manually.
Is that possible? (Preferably with yum, but I would use up2date if that were necessary.)
Also, I'm used to doing 'yum update'. I understand that 'yum upgrade' enables the obsoletion logic in yum, but practically speaking, when is it appropriate to use one or the other?
Thanks, Steve
