I think it was 6.3 that gave us IPv6 routes by default (and thus enabled the IPv6 CNAME lossage), 7.1 that gave us kerberized FTP (and broke EFS), and 7.2 that gave us "Hannibal Lecter". That is, I've heard Young, Tiemann, Drepper, and Havill talk about their internal procedures, and I expect that released RH will work pretty reliably with itself. But like Orange Book C2, if you connect to the 'net or install your own software, all warranties are void. Valdis> % rpm -q glibc Valdis> glibc-2.3.1-5 Valdis> Now *THAT* is trusting them an awful lot. :) I guess. It's a sad world when the leading open source distro feeds undocumented incomplete code to the paying customers, and only lets the people running "rawhide" have code actually released by upstream.... -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
