How do I check what version of Centos/Fedora/RH my server is running?

You can run the command below at a command prompt to see what version of Centos/Fedora/RH your server is running.

[root@hydra:~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.2 (Final)

Fedora sample:

[root@s2 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 7 (Moonshine)
