I have OO 1.9.118 installed on a test box and thought I'd take a whack 
at getting the oo specific lts_config scripts to work on EL.

Yeah I know... but it's too late to switch OS's.

I looked for the source rpms for the updated lts_config files but only 
found ltsp_config-0.0.32-k12ltsp.4.4.0.src.rpm

Can you pass them on to me Eric?

I had been looking at George Kocke's userprep
to push out OO 1.9.xxx but I'd like to see if I can get this to work.
