redhat 9 security issue?

by Martin Koops - Sunday, February 6, 2005, 5:44 AM

I am using Moodle on a redhat 9.0 linux server, with apache 2.0 and PHP 4.2.2.17, mysql 3.2.3.58

I am wondering if I am due to upgrade to another release (suse, fedora?) because of security issues?

I feel like I am falling behind. Is this a reasonable fear or am I seeing bears on the road??

regards,

Martijn

No need to change distributions, but you should definitely upgrade to the latest Redhat distribution patches, plus latest versions of Apache, PHP and MySQL. New exploits are being found for everything all the time, so you do need to keep up.

I have upgraded to fedora 3.

PHP 4.3.7, apache 2.0.52, mysql 3.23.58

The mysql seems to be an old one, yet the fedora is new.

Do I have to upgrade this mysql? Or am I ok now?
