Hello,
Does anyone know of a good URL that covers the remote install/upgrade of a FC3 system to CentOS 4 or 5?
We have one physically stranded FC3 system which is a name server and we need to upgrade to remove vulnerabilities.
Kind regards/ldv

There is no good upgrade path, your best off re-installing, or upgrade to a newer version of fedora.
If you have a nice server that has stuff like remote console and remote virtual media you can re-install from scratch remotely without much trouble.

its just a name server? backup the DNS zones and conf files, format and clean install C5, configure the DNS service with the saved zones. note that BIND has gone through some changes since FC3 was current, and you likely won't want to use your old named.conf verbatim, rather, copy the specific settings over into the new one. the zone files have moved from their old default location of /var/named to /var/named/chroot/var/named/{master|slave}, and the conf file has moved from /etc/named.conf to /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
