 These instructions worked great. I adjusted the instructions from fedora2 
to fedora3 and run them. It took about 3 hours on a shared T1 line for the 
actual installation and it went very smooth.
 The only problem I seem to have with the update is pine. It uninstalled 
pine and when I tried to install the pine-4.61-1.i386 RPM I got an error 
message of 'error: Failed dependencies:
	libldap.so.2 is needed by pine-4.61-1.i386"

This somewhat suprises me as I can't imagine the FC3 is not uptodate. I'm 
hoping I don't need to do a build of pine.

Thanks for the URL - I can say it was well worth the small effort.
