Hmmph. Well, not really. There seems to be a test kernel (2.6.9-42.EL) with this bug fix at: http://people.redhat.com/coldwell/kernel/bugs/223238/ Therefore, upstream may be working on backporting for RHEL4 (hopefully). Note also that the official patched version for CentOS 5 will not be available for a while either. The 2.6.18-18.el5 kernel might be for RHEL 5.1. Because the patch is available now, another option is to rebuild the kernel by applying it. Certainly not for everyone but if the fix is needed right now, this is the olny option. Akemi
