I have been looking at the security advisories provided here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/ It appears that there is not a 1:1 correlation between advisories listed here and advisories listed by Red Hat: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata Is there a specific reason for this? Also, is there an alternate location to find all Errata information for CentOS? Joshua Bahnsen -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That's really my question. Is there any particular reason why not all Red Hat advisories (RHEA, RHBA and RHSA) have a CentOS counterpart? Is this due to time constraints, demand, or some other legal reason? Joshua Bahnsen, Software Developer O : 480.663.8787 ?|? joshua.bahnsen at lumension.com Lumension ?|? 15880 N.
