..and in the long run, more stable.  If we want to stick closely to the 
standard RedHat kernel, should we stick with the RedHat 7.2 standard kernel?  
I'll have to check, but I believe it has ext3 support built in.  In any case, 
now that the 2.5 tree is open, *hopefully* the 2.4 kernel series will have 
had most of the nasties fixed, and should be pretty stable...

If I've got it right, this is one of the real problems... AFAIK, there is no 
replacement for the ICQ masquerading module... and this is one thing I've 
been having trouble with on the 2.4.8 kernel running on my Mandrake system...
