It all depends upon what Red Hat backported. > Either way, openafs modules for that kernel won't show up in any repository I > know of before the source package is available on Red Hat's ftp server and > rebuilt and released by the downstream projects.

The most recent kernel in that series for which a src.rpm has been released by Red Hat is kernel-2.6.32-358.18.1.el6 which is dated 15 August 2013 but was published on 27 August 2013. However, there are bug reports in the RedHat bugzilla referencing 2.6.32-358.20.1.el6 dating to mid-August. I have posted an inquiry to Red Hat. Jeffrey Altman
