Actually, I'm using the older kernel, 2.2.16-22, but I still must be
doing something wrong. The first time I tried to build rhinefet is
said something about not finding the kernel source. So I stuck in my
Red Hat 7.0 SRPMS disk and installed the kernel SRPM. This out a bunch
of stuff in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES and kernel-2.2.spec in
/usr/src/redhat/SPECS.

One of the things in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES was linux-2.2.16.tar.gz so
I untared it which gave me a linux tree in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.
Then I made a symlink from /usr/src/linux to
/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/linux.

But now when I try to build rhinefet I just get:
*** Linux kernel source not configured - missing version.h. Stop

I'm stuck and I'm off the read the Red Hat Version 7.0 reference.

I would appreciate any help though.
