Actually, I just downloaded the original source (instead of the RPM) and
built it myself for RH 5.2.  Works great.  I haven't downloaded the
latest/greatest, but that will come this weekend - I'm salivating over the
TCP_NODELAY stuff :)

Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to be a Linux Deity(tm) to follow
the install directions to build it from source. :) Also, that way, I know
it's configured for *my* machine, and it's easier to track down problems
that way.
