you're right, i misread.  my bad.  there has been a fair amount
of grumbling about the lack of non-X based admin tools in recent
releases of redhat.  i'm wondering if this is going to change,
given linux's history as a server OS and that it can frequently
be found in the back room, possibly as a headless server.

it would seem that a lack of command-line utilities would be
pretty annoying in that case.
