Re: Rumors
Hi,
I'm on the Lorax (Redhat 6.1 beta) mailing list - and I haven't heard
anything about the official release of Redhat 6.1 from Redhat. The paper
could have been confused the RH 6.1 with the Pirana (sort of fail safe
production from Redhat for 2 servers)..

Actully, those papers are on line for few months now (every night they
upload them) - but they are SEALED behind firewall (Yedioth & Maariv).
Maariv currently runs btw RH 6.0 and they LOVE linux very much.
Oh, and I just found out that Check Point have a beta of Firewall-1 for
Linux (heard that from Netvision). Seems customers insist on Linux
version of Firewall..
