However, considering how many people are doing this, and how much we've paid for RHEL AS, I'm *very* surprised that RH hasn't worked out a deal with Sun and Apache-Jakarta to have these included in the base. After all, RH is *supposed* to be value-added in that they provide packaging services, no? Oh, well, that's probably my lack of sleep from last night talking. :) I'd have probably finished a lot earlier if I hadn't taken the side-road of trying to get jpackage working. hehe Thanks, all!
