How HARD is it to update a Linux kernel (2.4.9->2.4.18?) ?

The server I want to upgrade runs on RH 7.2 with kernel "2.4.9-31" and I want to have "2.4.18-3"

Will RH network do that, or a rpm?

Will I have to update/modify any/a lot of other applications on the server afterwards?


FYI my biggest task so far was to recompile apache with a new module (sucessfully)
