brand new RH 9 box, up2date not working.
[root@yws etc]# update -u
There was an SSL error: [('SSL routines', 'SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE', 'certificate verify failed')]
A common cause of this error is the system time being incorrect. Verify that the time on this system is correct.
Then, what would you guys recommend I upgrade to and are there any how-to's for it? Is fedora core 3 good or is 4 good, or is cent os good?
I am looking for a QUICK and FAST way to install a OS and get a control panel up on the server.
I had hella trouble the past 3 days trying to get webmin installed on fedora core 3, but that was because I was doing alot wrong.
Can I get some guidance, maybe a little help if anyone has time to help me through this? ( I am past broke right now so i have ZERO Cash unfortunately, but help is much appreciated and I can setup a webhosting account or something in favor)
Thank you in advance.

Fedora is fine for a server, and , in many cases MAY be the only thing you can use.
For example:
If you want a 2.6 kernel on your system (recommended in some cases), then you've got to use (at minimum) FC2 to obtain redhat support.
The later RHEL4 and CentOS4 aren't fully supported in numerous applications, mainly because of udev, partly because of SElinux, and the like, so you're advised to stay AWAY from those for the time being.
Regardless, the upgrade path from rh9 is pretty simple, and you should do it quickly, as rh9 is unsupported, and has been for better than a year now. Don't rely on fedoralegacy.Tom Whiting, WHMCS Guru extraordinaire

Why are people still using rh9? I see many hosts still using it..is it just that they are too lazy to update?
