Hi, I was getting security updates from yum centos mirrors regularly on the 3.3-1 servers and checked the Centos errata. So I assumed the default unchanged centos yum.conf was giving me everything I needed. Now it seems yum will jump me from 3.3-1 to 3.4.
Does this all sound about right?
(I figured after seeing this I must be doing something wrong or the process changed somewhere. I do not remember seeing an announcement other than the one back in January but later someone mentioned the automatic update to 3.4 would not happen).
Thx

Centos-3 is the distro
When RHEL puts out a quarterly update (ie update 4) we call it version 3.4.
So 3.3 will go to 3.4 and to 3.5 and so on.

If my memory serves me, there was a problem with bind breaking during an upgrade from 3.3 to 3.4, so until the problem was fixed (within the last week or two), both the 3.3 and 3.4 trees were maintained separately. Now that the problem has been resolved, the maintainers have combined it all back into a single tree.
