Mike:

I'd also suggest you consider another distribution, almost any other
one, for your server OS. FC3 is really, really old, unsupported and
has unpatched security issues. Fedora is an awesome distro for
workstations (I use it nearly exclusively), but there is no long-term
support nor backporting of bug fixes to the older versions. It's
likely you could cross-upgrade from FC3 to an older distro like CentOS
4 and then upgrade that to 5, although a clean install is always a
better idea. (Make backups first!)
