I have some additional information to further clarify the mount/umount issue:
From a straight boot up, mount/umount works normally. Thanks go bad whenever
I run redhat-config-packages and attempt to install additional packages from the distribution disks. redhat-config-packages refuses to mount the distribution disk it is calling for. The only choice I have is to abort the package install. There is an entry in /var/log/messages:
Sep 28 09:08:28 steverod userhelper: pam_timestamp: timestamp file `/var/run/sudo/srodgers/unknown:root' is too old, disallowing access to redhat-config-packages for UID 500
After this event, I have trouble with the command line mount/umount commands as I mentioned in my previous message.

This message isn't a fatal error, it is produced any time you run a program that requires root privileges as a non-privileged user. This message should be followed by a pop-up for the root password.
