Hello,
Thanks for your reply. I run periodic yum updates, i do them manually,
and i just checked my /etc/redhat-release file, it says i'm still running
centos 5-final. Aside from the yum update and of course the kernel reboot,
is there anything else that needs doing? I'm running kernel 2.6.xx-15.
Thanks.
Dave.

'yum update' will take you between minor versions (5.0 -> 5.1 -> 5.2)
without any issues. The only downtime required is to reboot to the new
kernel which contains several fixes. This part you can usually do
whenever you can schedule it.
