No offense taken. I need all the help I can get with this mess.

Why not use rh's rpm? Mostly b/c it is a rh7.3 rpm and I am running rh6.2
w/ no upgrades allowed. Once I get up to rh7.3, I will use rpm, so this is
good advice.

I will not use the 2.4.19 as per your advice until Marcelo stamps his
approval on it.

Thanks.

Fred
