RHEL is not available free of cost. The free of cost version is Fedora.
before replying to a message on a thread it is advisable to read the whole thread. Everything you have said in this mail has already been discussed, debated, archived, documented and published and the rest of us have moved on. Please enable threaded view in your mail client.
Every time someone asks a simple question whether Red Hat Enterprise Linux ( RHEL) CDs can be copied and used on other machines, we give him long technical details about removing trade marks, downloading free sources etc. but we simply forget to say "No. You cannot duplicate RHEL CDs as they are paid for and are not free of cost. If you want free of cost, use Cent OS or Fedora". There ends the matter. Downloading free sources, compiling them etc to make a free CD is not what the newbies want to do. They are simply referring to making a copy of the _original_ RHEL CD in their frequently asked questions. They cannot do that.
