I am a novice running a dedicated server. Please would you advise me how to find out which version of Centos my server is running. I am trying to install IonCube. Thank you.

In /etc/ there is a file like redhat-release or release

Hello and Welcome to LinuxQuestions,

The following command should show you the information you need:

Code:

cat /etc/redhat-release

Enjoy Linux.

Kind regards,

Eric

There is one more way press "ctrl + Alt + F1"

It'll also show you the version of your OS.
