My FC3 installation has /lib/libcrypto.so.4, but my FC4 installation
has /lib/libcrypto.so.5, and I use ssh-agent.  I think you need a new
ssh-agent, not an old libcrypto.  Check to see if you have the latest
openssh-clients installed.  Mine is openssh-clients-4.2p1-fc4.1.

What's wrong with networking?  Maybe we need to fix that first.

Once it's networkable, see that yum is installed (rpm -q yum) and then

  yum update openssh*

- xscreensaver has been split into three pieces, but only
  xscreensaver-base gets upgraded.  Install
  xscreensaver-{extras,gl-extras} RPMs.

- /etc/updatedb.conf is set by default to NOT update daily.  Fix that.

- Upgrade of Perl removes some of the old library paths from @INC.
  You will probably need to install some missing modules from CPAN.
