Ximian Connector

I am successfully using Ximian Connector with Evolution 1.4.5 and FC1.  
You can download the Ximian Connector RPM from the Ximian FAQ site.  It 
will not work however until you install the license file which you must 
pay for.  Also, there is a missing dependency that I haven't found any 
RPM's to satisfy, so I copied the missing library from a RedHat 9 box 
and did a rpm -Uhv --nodeps ximian-connector-something.rpm and it works 
ok.  I copied /lib/libcom_err.so.3 from the RH9 box to the same location 
on FC1, and I <?>think</?> you also need to copy it to 
/usr/kerberos/lib/libcom_err.so.3. If you find another place to get the 
missing library, let me know, because I have to remove the 
ximian-connector package every time I do an apt-get operation, because 
it complains about the missing dependency. 

Here's the (painfully long) url to download ximian-connector:
http://support.ximian.com/cgi-bin/ximian.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=asBvcX2h&p_lva=&p_faqid=173&p_created=1017269162&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTQ3JnBfc2VhcmNoX3RleHQ9JnBfcHJvZF9sdmwxPTcmcF9wYWdlPTE*&p_li=
Otherwise, go to the Ximian homepage/support/Ximian Connector link/Can I 
install Ximian Connector without using Red Carpet?

Hope this helps.
