Determining Linux version and kernel versoin
I am new to linux (old to solaris), and have a number of linux servers I'm responsible for. When purchasing software, linux compatibility is listed in a number of different ways.
Example:
Red Hat Standard Edition 7.2 (2.4.7-10), and Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1 (2.4.9-e.3).
On a linux machine, the uname -a command returns
Linux 2.4.18-14 #1 Wed Sep 4 13:35:50 EDT 2002 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
What does that report? I do not see a file that says its a (ie) RedHat 8 Standard Edition or Advanced Server. Is there any?
Thank you very much.
