Hi John and Nate, But to make the tool search work in the web interface you'll need Python 2.5 or higher, so it's probably a better idea to get a newer version of Python anyway. (We have Galaxy on two CentOS servers, installed a newer Python in addition to the OS supplied Python 2.4 and modified the environment for Galaxy so it uses the newer version: was easy to do and works well.)
