When I scan my RH boxes for versions, I get 3.5p1 for RH9 and 3.1p1 for RH7.3 and RH7.2, yet they are on the latest RPMs.
Should I just recompile openssl/openssh from the latest source or stick with the RPM for RH7.2, RH7.3 and RH9?
I would stick with the RPM's Red Hat issues. They make sure that they put in all the patches required to each package. If 7.2 came with 3.1 and 9 comes with 3.5, RH will not move both to 3.5 or 3.7, but rather will fix any bugs that arise in the versions originally included in the OS. As for me, I find it lots easier to maintain computers if I stick with Red Hat RPMs (or from another trusted source like FreshRPMs for other packages).
