Disclaimer: I agree with Tom; running 7.3.2 is a bad idea.

That said: like he said, he can't. He's running RHEL 4.0. Presumably he 
is on a support contract, so moving to non-system software means he no 
longer has vendor support and upgrades for the packages installed on 
his system.  Pg 7.3.x is what came with RHEL 4.  Considering RHEL 3 
will EOL (finally) at the end of October, RH is going to be supporting 
Pg 7.3 for quite a while.  Hopefully they'll back port security fixes.
