I had been looking the realease notes of apache an the feature I need to use

Is this version certified? but the real question is, How can I check the
certfied version of a package?

it could be interesing for example know the roadmap of the next version,
(for example, I have downloaded the 5.4 Beta and I want to know what is new
in this release, and also for the next versions)

Hi All,
I want to install the apache 2.2.11 version on a RHEL. I have seen with
yum/pirut that the version that It installs is 2.2.3.
Looking on the RHN I have seen httpd-2.2.10-10.ep5.el5.x86_64.rpm that
comes
avaliable from JBoss EWS for 5Server x86_64 (it愀 strange because in the
channel list I dont see this type at all, It sounds like JBoss Application
Platform (v 4.3.0) for 5Server x86_64 but I don愒 know if it is the same).

So, my doubt is if this version of apache is certified, and in a more
general way where can I check what versions of any package are certified
(with any suscription, because I suposse that depending on the suscription
type the packages can vary).

Any help?

Thanks

No.

However, all security issues that are fixed in 2.2.11 are back-ported by
RedHat into the current version certiied for RHEL.

If you need some feature(s) from 2.2.11, you will have to install that
yourself and block yum/pirut from replacing it with the "certified" version.

Cheers,

The most recent version of httpd (Apache 2) in RHEL 5 is 2.2.3. This will not likely change until RHEL 6, so if you want this feature you are probably best advised to remove the existing one (yum remove httpd) and install the latest. You should build your own rpm file for the install, so that yum and rpm will know it's there, and just to be safe add httpd to yum's "ignore" list.

Cheers,
