I have two servers running two different versions of RedHat Linux. Here is the output from the "cat /etc/redhat-release" and "uname -r" commands for the two servers:
1. a) Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Pensacola)
b) 2.4.9-e.38smp
2. a) Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon update 1)
b) 2.4.21-9.ELsmp
When I go to the Red Hat website at redhat.com and look for documentation and manuals, in many places I see the different versions of Red Hat listed as version 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 9.0, etc. I am a bit confused. How does the release and kernel version information from /etc/redhat-release and uname correspond to these versions of 7.1 thru 9.0? How can I determine what manuals and documentation I are appropriate to the versions I am currently running?
