RedHat 6.2 was considered the last good version of RedHat Linux and the
7.2 version only recently came out. If you apply all of the updates (all
of them can be found at ftp://updates.redhat.com) then RH6.2 is rock solid
secure. My current RH6.2 server was up for more than 430 days before it
spontaneously rebooted (still trying to figure that one out)... We're
replacing it only because the hardware is obsolete.
