"Un" im unsure off, what you are referring to by that. U5 is Update 5 of ( I presume RHEL 3 ). If you have a look at the CentOS 3 branch, you'll see its at CentOS 3.4 ( meaning Centos 3 with Update 4 ). So to answer your question, these are updates to the initial base install of the OS which provide newer software ( at times ) bug fixes, etc. etc. They are released 3 - 4 times a year per build and centos release them usually shortly after RHEL does so. Update 5 for 3 is in "beta" at the moment. Update 1 for 4 will come, 4's only just been released.

Please excuse my ignorance, since I have not used any RedHat (enterprise or otherwise) until Fedora FC3 (a few weeks) and now CentOS4 (permanently). I keep finding references to Un (I believe it's up to U5 now) in references to bugfixes, etc for RHEL. I presume (?) these are dot releases after the initial release?
Is there anything equivalent for CentOS, or is this RedHat only behavior?
TIA,
