Thanks for all the replies. Maybe I'm asking the wrong question then? What I'm looking for is a way to implement a good change management system with my RHEL 4 ES U4 servers. If I use RHN and upgrade and install packages with up2date, it will install a newer version of the package than the one that came with Update 4. For instance, if you up2date --install postfix on an U4 box, it will install the version that came with U5. Now they are both postfix 2.2.10-1, but they are slightly different. I want to be able to install the same packages that came with U4, but I want to put that on a central server that every server can access. I would just install the packages manually, but the nice thing about up2date is it resolves dependencies. Any ideas on how I can do that with RHEL4?
