Trust me, it is only recognizing 4 GB.  Which makes sense because you have
to recompile the kernel with high memory support in order to access > 4
GB.
I believe you, I'm just confused.  We didn't do anything special on our 
system.  Are you using AS or ES?

$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Pensacola)
$ uname -r
2.4.9-e.49enterprise
