Two things have been weighing on my mind regarding security issues.
The first is that when I downloaded the CentOS 4.1 ISO images, I could not get the sums to match even using different downloads from different mirrors. I decided that that I was doing something wrong and decided to trust the images. So far no regrets. But I am concerned that I get it right the next time. I thought I had read everything carefully and I also had a small amount of experience with them in the past. Decided eventually maybe they just hadn't been updated (this was about a month or so ago, IIRC?).
Can one post the command used to gen the numbers so I can use the correct parameters next time?
TIA
My second concern is with security update announcements. For all the announcers but one (IIRC) I get "Invalid signature" displayed (using Evolution). I would ask "Should I be concerned?", but the answer is self-evident in security circles. So instead, I'll ask if this is acceptable in the official CentOS and I can continue to rely on their stuff in their opinion.
Again, TIA
And, please, no comments on the irony inherent in this. We don't want to be un-subscribed, otherwise castigated or fan the flames of possible list moderation. I know "the powers that be" will appreciate our cooperation.
Last TIA
