There's Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (also known as RHEL 4) and RHEL 4 Update 1. Your subscription to Enterprise Linux grants you the right to run any version you like. You can run RHEL 2.1, RHEL 3, or RHEL 4. When RHEL 5 comes out, you automatically have the right to upgrade to it as long as your subscription is active. RHEL 3 did Update 4 and Update 5 with U5 being the current. Again, you can run any version you need with a single subscription. Once you activate your subscription, you can download the ISOs for any version from Red Hat Network. If you decide to get the original RHEL 4 ISOs, you can upgrade to Update 1 simply by running up2date. .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, RHCE Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
