Ralph,

Thanks for the suggestion to use tinyca2.... great utility!!!!!  The
link was also excellent.  

Unfortunately, I am going to give up on a fix for the failure of httpd
and do a repeat install.  This is my 4th install of CentOS 5.0 and
everything has worked perfectly before.  I am sure it must be related to
something I have done during my configuration setup, but I can not find
the error for now.

Back to the Salt mines!!!

Greg
