I googled "red hat" "shrike" and lots of useful things came up. Shrike
is version 9, the last release, of Red Hat Linux.

"Since 2003, Red Hat has discontinued the Red Hat Linux line in favor of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) for enterprise environments. Fedora,
developed by the community-supported Fedora Project and sponsored by Red
Hat, is the free version best suited for the home environment. Red Hat
Linux 9, the final release, hit its official end-of-life on 2004-04-30"
