OK. I tried it again on my RH 7.2 box at home. I still get the
same errors. I even followed Daniel's step-by-step suggestion
above and got the same errors. However, when I did it on my
RH 7.1 box at work, it works correctly. So, something is amiss
with my home box. Any suggestions where to start? I'm totally
lost on this one.
