The latest CentOS kernels are (sorted by date): [...] 2.6.18-164.el5 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.plus 2.6.18-164.el5.plus 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5.centos.plus 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5.centos.plus 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5 2.6.18-164.10.1.el5.centos.plus So you are actually quite a bit behind, which makes your system vulnerable as most non-plus updates are security ones. Make sure you update against a fresh CentOS mirror, maybe you are using an old stale one? (BTW the latest RHEL kernel is "164.11.1.el5", so it's likely that there will also be a "164.11.1.el5" CentOS kernel quite soon) -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
