I figured that, but had to try since that's all that's available at the
moment. If an RPM will work, I would prefer to use it.

As far as I can tell, the config options that horde uses really aren't
all that different. I suppose it could be argued that you should use
/etc/httpd/conf.d/horde.conf instead of adding on to the end of 
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, but even that wouldn't be a major problem.

I'll do that, and let you know what happens. 

The only real concern I have is that Red Hat still does not provide
mcal or php-mcal, used by kronolith. Do you forsee any problems
there, or will kronolith be fine without mcal?

Thank you,
