As this appears to be a request for support, and not a bug report, please either
contact Red Hat's Technical Support line at 888-REDHAT-1 or file a web ticket at
http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/.  Bugzilla is not an official support
channel, has no response guarantees, and may not route your issue to the correct
area to assist you.  Using the official support channels above will guarantee
that your issue is handled appropriately and routed to the individual or group
which can best assist you with this issue and will also allow Red Hat to track
the issue, ensuring that any applicable bug fix is included in all releases and
is not dropped from a future update or major release.

Ah.  I was under the impression that everything went into bugzilla.  I saw some
other RHEL4 items in bugzilla and thought I would open an issue.

Jason,

Was this issue logged (and hopefully resolved) by our support? I want to make
sure this got properly re-routed.

thanks,

-Jason

Yes it is logged, but so far no resolution yet.  You can close this.
