I suggest that if you want to install Red Hat, install a version not less
than 6.0.  My experience is that 5.2 has a major bug in the masquerading
firewall software.  I took me about a year to figure out what the problem
was, and it didn't get cured by upgrading to 6.0.  I had to reinstall the
whole thing from scratch.
