Patches for Red Hat Enterprise Linux

The "Patches for Red Hat Enterprise Linux" Fixlet site is now available. The Fixlet site provides full coverage of Red Hat Security, Bug Fix, and Enhancement Advisories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5 x86 architecture. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4 and 5, x86_64 architecture is also supported with coverage of 2007 Red Hat Security Advisories. Full patch coverage for x86_64 is forthcoming. Usage of the site requires that you have a valid Red Hat Network login and an active Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscription for each Red Hat Enterprise Linux system you wish to patch.

To deploy updated RPM packages through BigFix, you must first download and cache all necessary RPM packages through Red Hat Network. A download cacher tool for Red Hat Enterprise Linux is available to facilitate this process. You can run the tool through the task "Run Download Cacher Tool – Red Hat Enterprise" or by following the instructions outlined here.
