Greetings, - Original Message - Well, its Centos 5, the current version of Centos, so I wouldn't call them ancient. Excuse me for not reinstalling my VEs every time there is a new template available ;) Good point BUT you were talking about making a new OS template if I remember correctly and you definitely do not want to base it on an older one. CentOS 5 is actually old. It originally came out about 4 years ago (RHEL anyway)... and for a Linux distro, that is ancient... but of course they have updated it about every 6 months so we have 5.6 now. RHEL 5.7 beta was released a while ago so I'd expect to see RHEL 5.7 in a couple of weeks... with the clones to follow after as soon as they can.

Hi Scott, CentOS 5 is actually old. It originally came out about 4 years ago (RHEL anyway)... and for a Linux distro, that is ancient... but of course they have updated it about every 6 months so we have 5.6 now. RHEL 5.7 beta was released a while ago so I'd expect to see RHEL 5.7 in a couple of weeks... with the clones to follow after as soon as they can. Yeah and CentOS6 is pretty near, although the release date has been slipping for a couple of weeks now. But it could be out real soon (TM) now. It's a bit OT, but has someone here managed to build a working template for RHEL6 (beta or not) to run on a CentOS5 master node? I tried it in preparation for CentOS6 (needed a devel VPS for a future CentOS6 based app) and ended up banging my head against the proverbial brick wall. Looks like INIT on RHEL6 is a bit more dependant on the kernel than it used to be and I can't get the RHEL6 VPS to fire up any services with the CentOS5 based OpenVZ kernel. -- With best regards Michael Stauber ___ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi Scott, If you aren't familiar with Scientific Linux, it is a long time RHEL clone that seems to be getting more attention with the delay of CentOS 6. For more info, here are two good reference: Ah, that's interesting. Yeah, I heard about it, but haven't tested it yet. I'll give it a look. Thanks! -- With best regards Michael Stauber ___ Users mailing list Users@openvz.org https://openvz.org/mailman/listinfo/users
