For (32-bit x86) servers it is called rhel-server-6.0-i386-boot.iso and for (32-bit x86) workstations it is called rhel-workstation-6.0-i386-boot.iso. Are you getting your media from RHN or another source? Installation numbers appeared in RHEL 5 and was used to configure the installer to allow you to use the packages you were licensed to use. RHEL 3 and 4 didn't have this because they were packaged/sold separately. RHEL 2.1 included the license for it but was installed separately. In RHEL 6 these are add-ons. I doubt it makes sense to have an installation number for RHEL, and Resilient Storage and Load Balancing, etc. Forced TLS on LDAP while it may differ from previous releases is a best practice. Sending unencrypted credentials across the network is not a good idea. I've never had a problem with installing software I need to use, and ksh is no exception. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
