My current box has a 2.0.34 kernel, I think. I've run qmail with lots
of 2.0.xx kernels. I've never been exactly RH 4.2 or RH 5.0 -- the
box has too much history for that :-).
If you installed a prebuilt qmail, either your own or from an RPM, you
might want to think about library versions; maybe your 4.2 box doesn't
have want you need, and the others do. (I'd think this would make a
message and a core file, though). Similar questions for tcpserver
versions.
