how do i check the REDHAT details?
I am using lunix machine. I want to check if this is RED HAT 4 or higher version. How do i check this?

The below output does not tell about REDHAT version.

Code:
$ uname -a
Linux chfdallindb11 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Aug 19 04:00:49 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
$

Any help is appreciated.
