I'm with Bill on this one. RH is speakup friendly. I use it on a majority of my production servers and haven't had any trouble with it. Thanks Bill for keeping us supplied with latest patches in the cd images. Don't think a lot of people do this nad its a great help to me becuase I even point a lot of my cited friends to those images since there's not any other place I know of that has images upgraded with latest patches except for the ones we use.
