Looks like in Ubuntu 8.04 and RHEL5, it's in the smartmontools package. In RHEL4, it looks like it's in the kernel-utils package. Too lazy to look on my Fedora box, sorry. It doesn't look like it's part of a base install on any of those though. -- Joseph http://blog.josephhall.com/ /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
