Re: updating rpms
Try apt. It solves this kind of problem by automatically fetch and update bind-devel too. Search previous messages for apt-get.

To get a list of the installed rpms: rpm -qa bind\* If you try to update just the bind package then the bind-devel and bind-utils will be out of sync. So, if you don't need the bind-devel rpm you can un-install it and try again or just get the bind-devel and maybe the bind-utils as well and update all three.

Hello. I tried now in two machines,upgrading first kernel as is described in Red Hat support documents and later upgrade all rpm packages without problem.

If you tried to upgrade the kernel using "U" you will have problems, if you are not sure what I mean, look for a doc on how to install a new kernel.

Hello. Just when finished upgrade,had a problem with console session,I open another console session (ctrl-f2) and was not possible login because an problem,maybe was kernel uppgrade the problem,but was impossible boot the machine:) Do You believe that upgrading kernel first will be solved? Josep Begin of Quote Harold Cubillos : Sounds like the kernel rpms were updated and you just have to compile the new kernel. Course, first you will have to get into the system !
