Subject: RedHat Version Numbers


Is there a location within Linux RedHat that clearly states the RedHat
version (i.e. 7.0, 7.2, 7.3, etc.).  We have some 30 different servers and
I'm trying to determine which servers have which version.  I have looked at
/proc/version which clearly tells the Linux kernal version, but the RedHat
version is rather cryptic.  For example:

In one installation of RedHat 7.2 /proc/version states:
Linux version 2.4.2-ac3 (root@flagship) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat
Linux 7.1 2.96-98)) #1 Tue Feb 19 08:00:28 CST 2002

Another one states:
Linux version 2.4.7-10 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version
2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)) #1 Thu Sep 6 17:27:27 EDT 2001

Another one which I believe is RedHat 7.0 states:
Linux version 2.2.16-22 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version
egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)) #1 Tue Aug 22 16:49:06 EDT
2000

When you boot the system it states the RedHat version, so it must be getting
it from somewhere.  However, I do not want to boot all the systems just to
determine the version.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
