In case you haven't run into this issue yet, I'll save you a few seconds
reading the CentOS FAQ:

http://www.centos.org/index.php?option=faq&task=viewfaq&artid=24&Itemid=5

I'm sure you don't need me to tell you, we *all* read the FAQs first,
right????  (Yeah, right!  I don't until I hit a roadblock...;)

HTH!

| First, thanks for all the respones.  After a little googling and

| Whitebox.  Incidentally, if we had more money to spend, I would have
| simply installed RHEL and been done with it.

| The initial installation went very smoothly - looking and acting
| just like the most recent RH I had installed (RH9).  The first usage
| will be for our development server - serving for SCM, automated builds,
| unit testing and a Wiki.  Sometime in the coming weeks, I'll be
| installing Tomcat, Subversion, Maven and a few other Java development
| tools.
|
| If I discover any suprises, I'll be sure to post them here.
|
| Thanks again,
| Chris
