what is the command to look for the version or patch level? e.g i want to know, for example GLIB, samba, kernel, and the applications installed

thanks,
 
The kernel is "uname -r". The other packages depend on how they are installed. If they are RPM packages, just do a "rpm -qa | grep packagname". For example...

[root@rh1 root]# rpm -qa | grep samba
samba-common-2.2.3a-6
samba-client-2.2.3a-6
samba-2.2.3a-6

[root@rh1 root]# uname -r
2.4.18-3

[root@rh1 root]# rpm -qa | grep glib
glib2-2.0.1-2
glibc-common-2.2.5-37
glibc-devel-2.2.5-37
glib10-1.0.6-10
glib2-devel-2.0.1-2
glibc-2.2.5-37
compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2
glib-devel-1.2.10-5
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-7.16
glib-1.2.10-5
