Satish,

I actually just downloaded the beta the other day, didn't even burn the 
cds yet. I'm hoping to fix the current instalation because I just 
finished setting everything up, as in Sunday =). But if Austin's 
sugestion doesn't work out it wont' be to hard to copy everything to the 
network and re-install.

Thanks for the info, it's nice to know I will have a good chance of RH 
9.1(what ever they are going to call it) working.

Thanks,
Keith.
