Yup all the apps I mentioned have their good ol install scripts! Sheesh! Now
I hunt for all these files and rm them! Oh boy here goes nothing hopefully I
shouldn't delete my /bin directory or something!

Nope no probs infact they've have more apps that you can install....They
have a new app called kudzo I think which automatically detects new hardware
and can help you configure it. Kewl! Except maybe that internet gateway
script from PCQ in the /etc/rc.fd/rc.fw doesn't work with RH 6.1 Has some
problem with the ipwfadm-wrapper. You have any suggestions as to how to
rectify it because from what I see I might have to use ipchains and for that
I have to RTFM. So anyone got any suggestions as to what changes I shoudl
make in the script so that I can get my internet gateway up?

Thanks
Jeff
