CentOS newbie question - updates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Pardon the newbie question, but I thought I'd check with you guys here since 
I couldn't find the answer to this one on CentOS web site.

I installed CentOS 3.4 (needed an equivalent of RHEL 3.4 for a very specific 
purpose - not interested in newer releases at this point) and downloaded all 
available up2date stuff.  However, Apache is at v2.0.46, php is at 4.3.4, 
and so on - which are all quite old versions.  I was under the impression 
that Red Hat rolls updates into existing versions and what may show as 
Apache 2.0.46, may indeed include updates and patches that are available in 
the most current release, 2.0.54.....  Is this the case here, with CentOS, 
or should I be looking somewhere for actual rpms for Apache, php, and so on, 
to bring them up to 'latest' standards?  If so - where??  up2date doesn't 
seem to be loading anything more current than what I mentioned above.

If current patches are rolled into old versions, how does one distinguish 
between the "old" Apache 2.0.46 and "new/patched" 2.0.46??

Thanks,

Chris
