Hi Doug

Thanks for this valueable information. Actually our client purchased only
RHEL AS 4.0 (no updates), so i dont have U4 or U5. Bad luck for me. But i'll
try to arrange at my end.

I would definitely like to get in touch with you again. It has been a great
learning experience. We have clustering and san configuration ahead.

Thanks & regards
Siddhartha
