Upstream released 4.8 on 18th May 2009. Here is the announcement for those who
missed it.
http://press.redhat.com/2009/05/18/red-hat-enterprise-linux-4-8-now-available/
When can we expect CentOS 4.8? When it is ready? Soon?
Thanks

Not wanting to sound like a spoil sport but if its critical
to your server(s) can't you build your own kernel, pretty
sure I've seen this discussed on the docs list. I suppose
the CentOS plus one has to go through QA and regression
testing no?

The apache httpd.conf has AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 while
the page I'm viewing on my CentOS server is charset=ISO-8859-1
The page appears funny on the browser showing ��
Given that apache has the default charset shouldn't it honor it?
Why the �� characters?

Yes the Enterprise Samba Docs are more than 28 Mb but are

not working and charset specified in some files and unspecified
Upstream bugzilla says :-
Rebasing to Samba 3.0.32 would fix various current RHEL4 bugs.

I have looked at the bugs.centos.org but did not find
user reported bugs.
Is anyone experiencing problems using the CentOS 4 samba?

Perhaps with the release of the CentOS 4.7 Server CD
the frontpage at www.centos.org could be updated to
reflect this new development rather than 4.4?
