Hi again all, Many thanks for all your support on this issue. Regarding the RPMs, it would seem that the latest available supported RPM for RH9 through the up2date command is the version that is already present on the system i.e. Apache 2.0.40. Therefore I will need to investigate YUM to see if this is also the case. BTW this is the old Red Hat 9 and not the enterpise release which Red Hat are still supporting. I concur with Simon that the answer if we stick with RH9 is to build from source. However we will do this on a UNIX machine locally in the office so that we can mirror our online dedicated server and then once we are happy we can then mirror the updates on the live server. Correct me if I'm wrong here but surely I can't use Fedora packages on RH9 even though they are related as there would be a ton of system utilities / OS libraries that would be incompatible and out of date. Not to mention changes in file locations and paths. What would you guys recommend as the OS of choice for a live production web server assuming not Red Hat 9. The other choices here are Fedora Core 2 or SUSE 9.0??

Hi again, You could also try using the fedora legacy rpms but the highest apache version there is 2.0.40-21.17 May I ask who you got the dedicated server from, and if its colocated. Is it a rental or did you buy it outright ? the reason being, if it was a rental, it would be a simple matter to EOL that server and set up a new server, then just switch the dns over when you're ready. alan -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
