Probably not what you want to hear but since running GNU/Linux is all about performance, protecting assets and providing services in a continuous, stable and secure way you must know Red Hat Linux maintenance and errata support ended on April 30 of 2004 for all YES ALL Red Hat Linux releases (not RHEL) so while you plan your migration to a current, maintained and supported release and make it soon. If you know and like what RHEL provides but don't want to pay for it you could run CentOS. If you like what RHL provided but want cutting edge software you could run Fedora. Else check out the many "choose a distro" threads here.

Since when does this occur?
What has been changed since then?
Do these systems have been audited recently?
Can you log in on the console and look for anomalies in system and daemon logs?
To whom are these systems available, LAN and or Internet?
What do these systems provide (services)?
