I only upgrade redhat versions in times of great need, such as when they
switch from libc to glibc.
Simple fix:
http://help.netscape.com/kb/consumer/19990807-8.html

As root:
chkfontpath --add /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi

They don't say it, but I think this will work only if you are using xfs,
which is the default. BTW, does anyone know how to configure Redhat's
xfs so it accepts inet connections. Do I have to install the non-Redhat
xfs? I want to serve my fonts to other machines. I think Redhat broke
this because it is a security leak.
