Hi, I have an old server that originally was a RedHat 8 server. Then I upgraded to RedHat 9, then Tao Linux 1 and last to CentOS 3 when tao was discontinued. Yes I know that this was probably not the smartest thing in the world but now this is the case and I don't want to reinstall it. Now the question. In yum.conf I have distroverpkg=redhat-release and cat /etc/redhat-release gives: CentOS release 3.7 (Final) But when I run yum update the release reported back is 1.0 yum update Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: CentOS-1.0 - Addons Server: CentOS-1.0 - Base Until now I have manually changed yum.conf and replaced $relesever with whatever version I had but why is $relesever replaced with 1.0 ?
