Hi, Is using Red Hat site for documentation legal? If I understand correctly you have to be a customer of Red Hat to be allowed to use their bandwidth: https://access.redhat.com/help/terms/ "2. Terms Applicable to Red Hat Content. In order to access a Red Hat Portal and Red Hat Content, you must be a current Customer of Red Hat or its affiliates [.......] "Some Red Hat Content may have additional terms, license agreements, privacy terms, export terms, subscription agreements, or other terms and conditions ("Additional Terms") that apply to your access to or use of the applicable Red Hat Content. In the event of a conflict, inconsistency, or difference between these Terms of Use and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control. [........] 6. Use of Content. Red Hat grants you a personal, non-assignable license to use Red Hat Content for your own internal use while you are a Red Hat Customer (as defined in Section 2 above). Distributing any portion of Red Hat Content to a third party, using any Red Hat Content for the benefit of a third party, or using Red Hat Content in connection with software other than Red Hat Software under an active Red Hat subscription are all prohibited. Red Hat authorizes you to display on your computer, download, play, and print the Red Hat Content provided: (a) the copyright notice is not removed, (b) Red Hat Content is not be altered, (c) Red Hat Content is used only for your personal, educational, and non-commercial use in support of your active valid subscriptions to Red Hat products and services and in accordance with your Customer Agreement, (d) you do not further redistribute or copy Red Hat Content, and (e) you comply with any Additional Terms. In the event of a conflict, inconsistency, or difference between this Section 6 and the terms of a License or Customer Agreement, the License or Customer Agreement will control (for example, for Red Hat Content licensed under a Creative Commons License, you will have the rights set forth in the applicable Creative Commons License)." --------------------------- The way I understand it, most RHEL documentation has a more permissive license, like CC-BY-SA: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ and can be redistributed under certain conditions. However, the terms of use still apply to using the Red Hat websites (=bandwidth). But if someone is a Red Hat customer, he can legally access the site, fetch the documentation and redistribute it to everyone. Since RHEL and CentOS are now collaborating, can they sort out this issue? Thanks, Adrian Buciuman
