Hmm.

# rpm -q centos-release
centos-release-5-1.0.el5.centos.1

and:

# rpm -qa --last | head

so, perhaps I did get the update, since the first of those 2 cmds shows 5.1.
But I don't remember getting a huge bolus of updates, which is what I would
have expected to constitute a 5.0==>5.1 transition.

Probably I was further confused by /etc/redhat-release:

# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5 (Final)

which apparently (based on someother postings) a bug.

Thanks for the reply!
