Why not just automate it? It shouldn't be too hard to write a short script that'll read the data from finger.kernel.org once in a while. > I would still recommend upgrading to RH 7.3, because otherwise I find we > will have a very hard time keeping the system up2date.

BTW, I'm using up2date on production redhat 6.2 server without any problems - redhat still release updated rpms for this version (well, except for OpenSSH/SSL I guess, because they weren't included in this version..) > > Regards, > > Shlomi Fish Sagi ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives available at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
