Hi,

I have some questions upgrading 3 Red Hat systems (ES3, 4 x86 & ES5x86_64, one each) from FDS 1.01-4 to 1.1.

   1. On RHES5.1 x86_64, is it safe to do yum to update the
      installation? There are a lot of warnings out there about yum vs
      Beta of 1.1. Should I remove all of 1.01-4 first?

Either way is fine. Just be sure to backup your data (db2bak, db2ldif) and your config (slapd-instance/config) before you upgrade.

   2. Should I be using redhat-ds instead of fedora-ds for supported
      RH systems?

Red Hat Directory Server is not free - you have to purchase a separate subscription/entitlement. If you would like to purchase Red Hat DS, please contact me off list.

   2. Searching for packages in rhn.redhat.com, there is no redhat-ds
      available. Shouldn’t it be there? I have entitlements for 3, 4
      and 5.

See above.

   2. Must I use YUM for Enterprise 4 systems? Why can’t I just
      download an FDS 1.1 RPM and install it?

There is no FDS 1.1 RPM for EL4.

As an aside, up2date supports yum repos to some extent. If you look in /etc/sysconfig/sources (I think) you'll see some syntax for it.
