I called Red Hat, they said TOO BAD YOU LOSE! I feel sorry you didn't do your homework. I looked extensively on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux site as well as the Fedora Site and found no implication that there is any relationship between RHEL and Fedora. If anything, the exact opposite is true. You could have consulted: http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/whichlinux/ If you did more research you'd find links to helping you update from old versions of Red Hat software when there was no "Enterprise". But, in any event, one wonders why you didn't just didn't go the evaluation route. http://www.redhat.com/rhel/details/eval/ Sure, Red Hat should refund you for your mistake. I don't know how you approached them with your refund request...but if you were belligerent from the onset and accused them of ripping you off...well.... In any event, you probably don't want to go the CentOS or Whitebox route since they are other incantations of RHEL. FWIW, I don't think anyone is calling you an idiot. I think they are just surprised that you made the mistake and equated Fedora with RHEL. Good luck with your other distributions. You may find the differences in the Debian way. So, don't make assumptions that it will work and be maintained just like Fedora/RHEL. Otherwise you may find yourself being confronted on their mailing lists. -- Let me take you a button-hole lower. -- William Shakespeare, "Love's Labour's Lost" -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
