Quoting BRUCE STANLEY <bruce.stanley at prodigy.net>: > Does this mean if Red Hat comes out with more updates for RHEL 4.1 > you will not apply them to Centos 4.1 anny more? "RHEL 4 Update 1 with more updates" is called RHEL 4 Update 2. Red Hat doesn't make updates for 4.0 or 4.1 or 4.2. Red Hat makes updates for "4". There's no such thing as RHEL 4.1 specific update. Exactly the same thing as CentOS project does. If you have three machines, one installed from "original" RHEL4 set of CDs, one installed from RHEL4.1 set of CDs and one installed from RHEL4.2 set of CDs, and than update any single package using up2date, you'll get *exactly* the same RPM installed on all of them. Again, exactly the same thing as with CentOS. Try updating any single package on your RHEL 4.1 box. And than compare it with your fully updated RHEL 4.2 box. Same version, eh? Not only same version, it was downloaded from exactly the same file on Red Hat's site. It is exactly the same thing Sun or Microsoft are doing with Solaris and Windows XP (if you haven't noticed, Solaris and WinXP installation CDs get changed from time to time without any change of the version of the product, usually there's only small print on the side identifying new CD/DVD revision). The confusion you have is that you call CentOS 4.0 (4.1, 4.2). Think of it as CentOS 4. The number after the dot means only that you have specific set of updates installed. Nothing more and nothing less. Same thing as with Red Hat. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
