How do you make it work?

[Rick Reed]

Not a bad idea.  rpm -e does that remove it?  I apologize for being such a 
Linux newbie.

Tell you what, when I get back to my feeble attempt at a news server would 
it be best to just reinstall Linux and not select news server during setup 
to make sure RH's news stuff doesn't get in there?  This is to be a test 
machine until I can figure out how to do it right then will build the 
production machine to be put into service.

Thanks for your patience and help, it's greatly appreciated when you don't 
know what the heck you're doing.

Don't shoot the messenger,
Rick Reed
