How do I learn the version of Linux that a server is running?

There's a RedHat Linux server, and I need to find out the version number of RedHat that runs on it. I can ssh to it, and do not want to use X-Win as it is so slow.





I know Windows has "ver" command that does just that; is there something like that in Linux?

How do I learn the version of Linux that a server is running?
cat /etc/redhat-release





or





uname -r will give you the kernel version
