[KLUG Members] This is why I use RedHat kernels ...

[Adam Bultman]

Okay, I need a little explanation:

When you say you use redhat kernels, does this mean you download the 
source for Red Hat Approved kernels, and make them, or just do an up2date 
for the newest kernel, and use the kernel they give you?  The first thing 
I do when I do an install of linux is upgrade the the most recent, known 
stable kernel.  I haven't run a stock kernel in a long time, and it bugs 
me to no end that we are running old, old kernels on the boxes here at 
work.  

With that said, what is the latest, most stable kernel?  I use 2.4.16 and 
2.4.17 on my linux boxes at home, but I dont' think I'd run themon servers 
yet...
