rockybalboa Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 I noticed security alerts and fixes listed on this website but when I tried to update the lazy way (MDK GUI updater) it doesn't list any available. Am I missing something or am I just special. I used the mirrors as recently as 4-5 days ago and got updates so I don't think there should be a problem.

Guest anon Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 You should update the mirror list before checking for updates. Another possible reason, not all security updates will appply to your system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linux_learner Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 check with the mandrake security site. there is also a linux security site. http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/advisories/ http://www.linuxsecurity.com/ both will keep you apprised of the security updates. you can verrify the patches there with your system by doing rpm -qa <filename> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
