I have never touched a real RHEL 4 box. But I run Centos 4 on a number
of systems and Centos 4 uses yum for quite a while. They have this nice
server CD that allows one to install a server with a minimum of packages
and then I add what I need with yum.

But needless to say Centos 4 is shipped with python v2.3.4 so the script
will not work there. And upgrading to python v2.4 is not a viable option
on those machines.
