How can i enter installation number for Redhat 5.3
Hi,
I install a new Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga). And I did skip installation number during installation.
Now I want to enter an installation number for Redhat 5.3. But I am using text mode and connecting via ssh.
How can i enter installation number? and How can i check Rehat Network running or not running? And Can I able to updates?
Thanks.
