No kernel is a 'Redhat' kernel. They are all the property of Linus
Torvalds. Redhat uses which ever kernel they want based on the
functionality they want to include in a given distribution. To find out
what your kernel is, type (as root) rpm -q kernel, which will return the
entire kernel string, I.e:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.4.20-8

That's from my mail/web server.

HTH,

Karl
