There is a long list of dependencies if I try to uninstall httpd!  This 
brings up three questions:

1) How do I "pipe" the errors from "rpm -e httpd" to a file?  "rpm -e 
httpd >/home/todd/rpm_uninstall.txt"  does not give the errors.

2) If I use "rpm -e --nodeps httpd" will all of those dependencies be 
satisfied when I install apache-1.3.27?  Hate to take my http server 
down forever :-) !!

3) How do I find out where Apache (httpd) is currently installed?  I 
think it may be at /home/httpd/www_default/.
