I am using RedHat 7.3. (Pro but I believe the only difference is in the
apps they give you with distro)

There are defragmenters, yes.

Generally speaking, they don't need defragmenting, but then again, that
was said about NT4 and W2k, and we both know the real story on those. =)

I don't know of any on-line defragmenters, only one that you have to
unmount the partition to be checked.

Depending on which distribution you use, it may be already packaged for
you.  Which are you using?
