Howard,
I agree absolutely.
One of my biggest problems is configuring /etc/printcap remotely. As a
config file /etc/printcap is a bloody disaster. So, use printtool I hear

reasons.
I also ran into this problem in my

Computerbank NSW has had 8 NCR 3400 computers donated to them.
Google tells me that these are circa 1987 and I note that NASA has

Not in '87 I don't think they would have, more like DOS 3. I seem to

You need rpm version 3.0.5 or greater. (but not version 4)
The latest versions of rpm 3.0.5 onwards can install version 4 rpms
using a version 3 rpm database.
rpm 4 has a different database format.
