Are you getting anything in /var/log/dump?  The command > outputfile
syntax will only send standard out to the file if you want ALL output to
go there you need to redirect standard error as well:

There was a big ol' hairy htread on this very recently you might try
searching the archives that David and Charles built at:

http://www.prairienet.org/library/redhat/

now if we could only get enigma archived there :)  Seems like there is a
7.3 coming soon too.  Maybe a donation or 40 would give some incentive.

No, I am not a affiliated in any way with prairienet other than a
grateful user of the service they have so gracioulsy allowed David and
Charles to put there. Hell I have to look everytime I need to spell
Prairie and it still does not look right even though in a previous life
I spent a bunch of time in Tuscola and surrounding towns south of
Champaign so I have done prairie, I just can't spell it :)
