So...
 - It's called fence-agents, not fence_agents (minor typo)
 - It's not available for RHEL or CentOS 5.5
... the wiki is mistaken on both of these counts, yes?


I've tried finding a fence-agents RPM I can use, but all the newer
ones have big disruptive dependencies (such as needing a newer glibc),
and older ones no longer seem to exist on the mirrors I've found
pointers to.  I can find no evidence that fence-agents was ever built
and distributed for any version of CentOS 5 / RHEL 5.

Am I on the wrong track here, or is this a reasonable path towards
getting a working vmware fencing agent for CentOS 5.5?
