[wplug] Redhat moves - help please

[Wise, Jeremey]

Watch updating the kernel. I would do it but watch out for the updater
getting the lilo.conf or grub.conf files wrong. I got burned twice in
updating my RH 7.2 and RH 7.3 firewalls. Just make sure the file it
references under the new entries exist and have the correct path. Make sure
to rerun lilo if that is the boot loader you are using.

Remote RH 7.3 web server updates info., continued...



Thanks for the help on up2date. I had to do the up2date and rhn_register
updates, but now I can see what's in need of attention.

Next questions:

Should I do a kernel update?

Should I let up2date update everything it wants to?

The default config is ignoring kernel and apache upgrades - should I let it
handle those as well?

Thanks again,

Scott

P.S. I know I'm asking noob questions and apologize, but I just started
dabbling in Linux as a workstation about 6-8 months ago. I'm coming along -
updates have scared me from day one. So afraid of breaking things I can't
fix. I guess I need to just get over it and dive in. Best way to learn.

Anyway thanks for the support and info I get from the mailing list. I'm lost
80 percent of the time (okay, 90), but some of it gets through to me. I did
learn to use ssh and gave up telnet, for instance. ;)
