Springdale Linux

Springdale Linux (formerly PUIAS Linux) is an open source Linux operating system based on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux distro. It was started long before CentOS or other similar projects.

Springdale Linux was built by compiling the source packages from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating system.

What is new in this release:

• This release follows the 5.9 release in renames to Springdale - so new name, new logos. Of course the big news is over 1000 package updates (~1300 or so) with many goodies and new features. For further information please check RH 6.4 release notes.
• One small note on an issue we've seen during internal testing. New versions of nss libraries have in effect blocked ssl connections to sites/services using SSL certs with MD5 hash signatures. For example if your ldap server is using such a certificate then sssd will stop working.

What is new in version 6.2:

• We are publishing the final puias 6.2 today and we made it the default for puias 6. Machines on automatic setup can expect to receive the update tonight - if you would like to keep your machines at 6.1 for now consider either stopping your rsync'ing of the main mirror or creating /etc/yum/vars/releasever file with content 6.1 on such machines.
