Well, I think I know what the problem is...

I had just freshly installed FC3 via NFS (first time
NFS install).  Then someone told me about the Symbiont
Management software (gpl'd RPM from Symbiont) and I
installed it.  I must have made some tweaks in this
software that messed up the default install.  I will
do another complete install of FC3, this time no
Symbiont.
