is their a way I can install a program to keep my RH9 box up to date as
in Fedora?? I need to update a few packages, sendmail being one of them
and I would like to keep it a simple as possible. Any Ideas?

OK.... The Box it is running on is a AMD K6-2 500, does anyone know if
their will be performance problems running Fedora. I currently have a
low volume web server and low volume e-mail running on that system.
Occasionally I use KDE to work on some configurations, and some
maintenance tasks, and that runs pretty slow. Does Fedora add much more
bloat then RH9, and how easy is it to change over??, How stable is it. I
don't want to go to RH Enterprise! I have "yarrow" which I think is
Fedora Core 1 ? Any suggestions???

I'm running FC2 on a K6-2 450 with 256MB of ram without problems. I can
use KDE over a VNC connection, although it is a little slow. Blackbox is
much more responsive. For a local connection, either should be okay. It
won't win awards, but it runs fine.
