While I'm seeing newer releases of httpd for RHEL-6, I don't see any for RHEL-5, but you might want to ask. Of course, you could build an RPM from the httpd source, (or build/install from source outside of the rpm manager). Note, RHEL-5 is in the last ~1.5 years of its 10 year life, so you may want to consider moving to -6 or -7. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
