CentOS5

I am moving servers to centos from freebsd, just had a look at ssh -v and shows OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006, i have run yum update and yum upgrade, doesnt seem to be any updates even though openssh 5.1 is out.
Do i need to worry about this or do centos just patch and not update the ssh version?
Thanks
former freebsd user.

rpm -q openssh-server
openssh-server-4.3p2-26.el5_2.1
I believe the 26 gets incremented with each patch. Or maybe its one of the other numbers. But the main version number does not change.

RedHat (and therefore CentOS) use the same main number throughout the life of an OS Version. They update the minor numbers as they backport changes. Try to update using yum. If you get the same number then you're at the latest version.
