Is Raw Hide Apache RPM stable with RH 9?

[Greg Bonnette]

My Apache 2.0.40 / RH 9 Web server seems to have been getting DoS’d more frequently as of late. I thought I had the most recent packages installed, but it turns out the latest RPM redhat has released was for 2.0.40, and the current release is 2.0.47. I searched rpmfind.net as usual and found an apache 2.0.47 rpm for the developmental Raw Hide release. Has anyone upgraded their RH 9 apache packages with this rawhide rpm? I know my other option is to remove the old package and install the latest version the old fashioned way, but I like the convenience of the RPM’s. If only up2date was actually up to date.
