I think the confusion is caused by where you happen to work, if you
work at Cern people say SLC3 regardless of what it really is.
At Sheffield it is
Scientific Linux SL Release 3.0.3 (SL) , i.e not Cern.
I think I'm correct in saying that no one is the UK is using the Cern
variant which would be my recommendation.
The only exceptions we currently have with in GridPP is one or two RHEL3
sites and a Fedora site.
So far there has only been one major difference between the two versions.
They are getting closer as far as I can see with more and more in the
cern version coming direct from Fermilab without change.
