Hey All,
I read on the list here not to long ago a work around for the following error on CentOS for installing the scalix mail server...
Error: unsupported OS release: CentOS release 4.2 (Final) on x86_64
Someone posted a fix where you could edit a file changing the name of the OS or something to fix this. Anyone remember which file it was I could edit and what I needed to edit it too in order to make this install work?
Any info would be great...
Thanks!

It was probably to change /etc/redhat-release to read...
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant)
Backup /etc/redhat-release...
cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.`date -I`
Then edit it and add the string above, install your package and then switch back.
Will.
