I don't know what all you would have to upgrade to make that work with RHEL-3 stuff. Personally, I would stick with what RHEL-3 uses (currently anaconda-9.1.4.1-1 and pam-0.75-62 in CentOS-3.4), so that you can do updates easily when they have security issues. See this concerning RedHat's backporting policy. Just because a RHEL package is older, it doesn't necessarily mean that it has security issues: http://www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_backport.html -- Johnny Hughes <http://www.HughesJR.com/>
