[CentOS] Is there a difference between RHEL 6 and 5.6?
I have seen over the past few months subjects on RHEL 6 and RHEL 5.6 Are these two different builds for Centos to chase or one in the same?

RHEL6 has a lot of new functionality. RHEL 5.6 is the current version of RHEL5. CentOS5 tracks RHEL5. CentOS6 will track RHEL6.

A few small difference; 2.6.18 vs 2.6.32 kernels Cluster 2 vs Cluster 3 etc. -- Digimer E-Mail: digimer at alteeve.com AN!Whitepapers: http://alteeve.com Node Assassin: http://nodeassassin.org
