I hate to say it, but none of them (RHPW included) really sound like much of a bargain for the SOHO customer. Is it possible to renew only the RHN (patches) for RHPW on a yearly basis? Even if it is, here's the catch... although you can always install server software (Samba, Bind, etc.), you won't have access to the errata. This still leaves a gaping hole for SOHO customers, IMHO. -- Jason Dixon, RHCE DixonGroup Consulting http://www.dixongroup.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
