<div dir="ltr">I believe RHEL/CentOS 7 uses the 3.x kernel. The "RH" way is to include security fixes but not change the first two version numbers. So your kernel should be okay, security wise, but not with the latest enhancements.<br><br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, May 20, 2015 at 9:27 AM, DJ-Pfulio <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:DJPfulio@jdpfu.com" target="_blank">DJPfulio@jdpfu.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I'm new to CentOS.

I've been having fun learning the redhat ways of doing things the last few days.<br>
Fun, fun.<br>
<br>
So - do I just need to reset expectations for using a 3.x kernel?<br>
