Er ... Red Hat *what*? I don't think they ever used such a version
number. If they did it was a very long time ago (for calibration,
they were just about to release RHL 7.3 when I joined the company,
in 2001). You could probably scare the powers-that-be into letting
you update the thing just on the grounds of it still being full of
Y2K bugs.
But more likely you read the wrong version number. What does it say
in /etc/redhat-release ?
(As already noted, php4 versus PG 8.3 is the least of your worries.
I'm just wondering whether you are on an OS version that's stable
enough that you should consider going live with *anything*.)
