That is what I thought.
There is no supported upgrade path for either RHL 9 or Fedora 4 to CentOS but you certainly can use anaconda to do that by appending... linux upgradeany
In fact I won't upgrade the current machines, as they're old. I'd setup new servers and migrate services one to one from the old to the new ones.
You get to keep the pieces that are broken. per info on Centos web site... http://centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=43 CentOS 3.x is in maintenance updates only mode...hardly makes sense to me to install this on anything UNLESS you have specific software that will only run on 2.4 kernels CentOS 4.x enters into maintenance updates only mode March 1st, 2008 - not that far off I don't know anything about 'perforce environment' and thus have nothing to offer. Similarly, I haven't use squid for many years and likewise dansguardian.
Perforce is a CVS-like system (proprietary).
Apache/PHP/MySQL are all starting to show their age on CentOS-4.x but thankfully, there is CentOS Plus repository for updated php & mysql but if I were thinking in terms of updates that I didn't have to bother with for a few years, I would certainly go all the way to CentOS 5 You might find some useful information here... http://centos.org/search.php?query=upgradeany&andor=AND&action=results&submit=Search
All very good info, thanks! Ugo _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
