I am still running 6.3, because I did not want to do a full system upgrade, then have to learn iptables. I am running ipchains, and have my box locked down just about as well as can be done. For a file/print/internet server, I saw no reason to upgrade, and still do not. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Russell Harrison Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 1:15 AM To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: PPPoE for RH 7.3 Out of curiosity, what is preventing you from updating it? Not have the time to do the update is a totally valid answer. I'm just trying to understand what are the things keeping people on really old releases in general. I know 7.3 was solid as a rock but its pretty out of date. From the number of machines that keep popping up running 7.3 there must be some good reasons for sticking with it.
