Red Hat Network

This product is part of Red Hat's Enterprise Linux offerings, so for the test we decided to install all the discs. We were a bit concerned over how it would fare, as our normal experiences of updating Linux involve clicking on the exclamation mark in the bottom corner of the screen and launching Up2date, Red Hat's auto-updater. If you have updated Windows, you will have a good idea how this works.

Patch management (2005)

We have found ourselves with a tie for Best Buy. Red Hat Network picks up one of the honors for the way it makes patching Red Hat Linux environments simple and hassle-free, while Symantec's ON iPatch does an equally impressive job of managing Microsoft environments.
