That IS good because this RedHat thing I think took
us a little by surprise.
Curious though what your concerns about Mandrake
are. Is it stability or something else?

It might be possible to just have a machine or 2
that you subscribe and then just collect the RPMS and make your own internal
repository for all your servers. Technically they are selling the service and
they can't own the packages. I don't think there is any way they can have
protection from people doing that. By the same token since they are providing
an important service it is important to give them some money.. whatever the
service is worth to you... I'm going to probably investigate paying for like 4
servers and using it on a few others and see how legal it is to do.
Mandrake may be a good path to take. I'm still
not 100% sold on it. Progeny certainly gives us a way to stick to RH until you
are ready to switch.

That's great. Sort of. I have 40 machines.
Spend and extra $200 per month or gradually switch to Mandrake? You know
what I am going to do.

From /. just now...
In a previous
story it was noted that Progeny would offer support to Red
Hat 7.2 and 7.3 customers facing an End of Life
deadline of 31 December 2003. Progeny has updated their
'transitional
software' offerings to include support for Red Hat 8.0 and 9
for $5 per month, per machine. This is great news for IT folks who are
faced with the choice of a new OS or abandoned 1-year-old
software
