Excellent news. It would be interesting to see the specs for how the approved version was configured.

I would too. I wonder how 3rd party packages played into this.
It’s easy for something to be secure if it comes out of the box with everything turned off, or with everything removed/stripped.
If it were done with everything + the kitchen sink on, installed, and enabled then Bill probably was twitching. :-)
Besides, this isn’t the first RH OS to reach high security rating, SuSE has also done it.
Ditto, Id really like to see the specs..
Linux has had these capabilities for years its just never had the weight of someone like IBM to push for this recognition. The areas of advantage for Solaris continue to disappear, then again with open solaris, gpl java, and talks about OSS solaris the advantages of Linux over Solaris are disappearing.
Red Hat continues to, with too little community credit, put together the distro which moves linux higher and higher up the food chain.
