Subject: Read version and distro?


Is there a command(s) or perhaps a file to read that will tell what kernel
and distro verison a Linux box is running?  A string that says "RedHat X.X
Linux 2.x" or something like that.  Or maybe the info comes from two
different places.  Whatever.  How do I get that?
