>To get the most out of your Linux system, such as adding features,
|
|
getting rid of potential bugs, and ensuring it is reasonably free of
|
|
security holes, it is a good idea to keep your server -- including the
|
|
Linux kernel, modules, and user applications -- upgraded. At times it may
|
|
also be necessary to upgrade hardware components such as a larger hard
|
|
drive. This chapter will address these issues.</P
