I was running mandrake on the servers for a while, and updating them was a little time taking.
>From what I have heard RH has up2date and linuxconf (mandrake has this too).. Does 8.0 have these features? or have they changed? or is 9.0 better to go with? What I was reading on http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/errata/ Red Hat Linux -- Red Hat's policy for Red Hat Linux distributions is to provide maintenance for at least 12 months. At certain times, Red Hat may extend errata maintenance for certain popular releases of the operating system. End of Life dates for errata maintenance for currently supported products are listed below: Red Hat Linux 9 (Shrike) April 30, 2004 Red Hat Linux 8.0 (Psyche) December 31, 2003 Red Hat Linux 7.3 (Valhalla) December 31, 2003 Red Hat Linux 7.2 (Enigma) December 31, 2003 Red Hat Linux 7.1 (Seawolf) December 31, 2003 Does that mean you will on longer be able to update your current version with the bug fixes?
