Red Hat 7 is the latest and greatest release to come out of Research Triangle Park. Let's find out. We'll be reviewing the Red Hat 7 ftp release here. The first thing new about the distribution is that there are now two installation CD's. Red Hat has added a lot of new stuff here namely OpenSSH and Tripwire for security, Kernel 2.4, Abiword, Xfree86 4.0 and USB support.
System administrators are still likely to go for the latest software release off the net.
Coming to the installation. There's not a lot new in the Red Hat 7.0 install. If you've been through a 6.2 install, you've already seen what the 7.0 install looks and feels like. There are some improvements though. Red Hat 6.2 allowed you to choose either but not both.
