So, just cd texmf/fonts/afm and all afm files will be there. You still need the afm files from cmps-unix.tar.gz since these are not included in teTeX. > Similarly, the X server font path needs to have the *.pfb files from > Latex, and that one has me stumped.

I'd copy or symlink all type1 files from TeX into one directory for X. Then, use type1inst to create a fonts.scale file. If the different RedHat systems are networked, you can set up a font server for X, so you'll be able to maintain the fonts at one single place. Thomas
