I just rpm -e'd fedora 1.0.4-1, rm -fr'd the /opt/fedora-ds directory, and then reinstalled saying "No" to whether I had another DS and if there was another DS with configuration information. The Admin server configured and started up automatically! So, now we know 1.0.4-1's Admin setup is strongly adverse to using my 7.1 for config. >Is that server running? There is no crowd at my door, so, yes. :) I am going to re-run it again and say "No" to the first other-DS question and "Yes" to using it as a Config server and see what happens. Thanks, -Ken.
