Short Answer: You will both be better off looking at a non-enterprise operating system. If the company has standardized on CentOS for long term support they could look at Fedora for this one off and then use CentOS-6 when that comes out. Long Answer: You would need to basically compile newer glibc, newer ldconfig, gcc, etc etc etc until at which point you have a base Fedora-11 system and some CentOS stuff that might still work (but highly unlikely). -- Stephen J Smoogen.
