Thanks Steve.
It seems that we are running rpm 3.0.4, which I think is right:
[root@pc15 beta21.i386]# rpm --version
RPM version 3.0.4
The document you pointed out says that the LCFG server needs 3.0.5-9, but
can I assume that it should be *just* the LCFG server, and that version
isn't generally required?
