Administrator Emeritus

DCrystal, please review our rules and note rule 5 which is the only underlined rule:
(5) Search the forums database with your keywords before asking.

There is a link to our search engine on every page. Try putting in "linux distro poll" and you will find it. Other people have found it over 2000 times.

And yes, Red Hat is still developed, but you need to use precise terminology. Red Hat Linux is no longer developed. It split into two distros: Fedora Core and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (FC and RHEL).

RHEL 4 Update 4 was released on Aug 11, 2006
RHEL 5 is in Beta and the last beta release of it was Nov 20, 2006

RHEL 4 is based on FC 3
RHEL 5 is (will be) based on FC 6

Since this poll was created by someone not familiar with the other linux poll, I will close this poll.

uuid

UUID(3) 							    Libuuid API 							   UUID(3)

NAME

       uuid - DCE compatible Universally Unique Identifier library

SYNOPSIS

       #include <uuid/uuid.h>

DESCRIPTION

       The UUID library is used to generate unique identifiers for objects that may be accessible beyond the local system.  This library generates
       UUIDs compatible with those created by the Open Software Foundation (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) utility uuidgen.

       The UUIDs generated by this library can be reasonably expected to be unique within a system, and unique across all systems.  They could	be
       used, for instance, to generate unique HTTP cookies across multiple web servers without communication between the servers, and without fear
       of a name clash.

CONFORMING TO

       OSF DCE 1.1

AUTHOR

       Theodore Y. Ts'o

AVAILABILITY

       libuuid is part of the util-linux package since version 2.15.1 and is available from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.

SEE ALSO

       uuid_clear(3), uuid_compare(3), uuid_copy(3), uuid_generate(3), uuid_is_null(3), uuid_parse(3), uuid_time(3), uuid_unparse(3)
