Hi,

I have got rpm packages which are upgrade version of RHEL4. But I'm
not able to upgrade my RHEL4 server from these bunch of RPM's. I tried
through up2date command. there It's going to web to upgrade. So anybody
can help me how to upgrade from my local directory which has update RPM
packages.

Thanks,
Bhagavan

rpm version? In Linux only few rpm can't upgrade entire OS.

If you have all the rpms you wish to install then run this command to see if all dependecies have been met. Once complete then remove the --test option.
rpm -Uvh *.rpm --test
