that's easy, it's the redhat/redhat-6.0/RedHat/RPMS directory.

you need to upgrade just about everything basically. biggest danger is when
you upgrade the C libraries. if you're using RH install the libc-compat rpm
before doing a rpm -U glibc. And make sure you have a backup of /lib and a
good rescue disk handy.

Easiest thing to do is an upgrade, and sort through all the broken config
files afterwards.

regards,

paul jakma.
