I think the general rule for fedora is that the current release (now FC3) and one previous version can be maintained with up2date or 'yum update', so you should plan to either re-install every-other release or start watching for security/bug fixes yourself or pick them up from a 'legacy' support site. FC2 should continue to get updates until FC4 is released. I'm not quite sure why the 'legacy' support site isn't backed into the same update repository so you would not have to change configs to update older systems, but... > In fact I would need recent version of a LAMP server + mail (SMTP+IMAP) > server. If you want longer support cycles and don't care about new features you can go with the Redhat Enterprise release or one of the free clones. If you like the Dovecot IMAP server you can rebuild the fedora source RPM on RHEL/centos/whitebox. Everything else should be about the same from a server perspective. --- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
