The DoIT Linux lab workstations and GL Linux login servers will continue to run Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 for the Fall 2010 Semester.
Release notes, additional information and updates can be found at this URL:

We plan to update the image on the GL Linux login servers as follows:
- Upgrade one out of the three boxes during Week of Aug 16th.
- Upgrade an additional box at beginning of Week of Aug 23rd
- Upgrade the final box towards the end of the Week of Aug 23rd
While individual servers are down, going to linux.gl will get you onto one of the remaining servers up and functioning. We ask that you please continue to connect to linux.gl instead of individual system names to ensure you get to the right systems.
As always, if you have any issues with the servers or our lab systems, please start a ticket with our Help Desk. Please include the system you are on and as much detail as you can about the problem. It will then get moved to the group that can best handle it for you.
