Hi Craig,

I did an RPM search and it looks like SuSE is the only one maintaining 
that module.
Is the pre-compiled Suse RPM below of any use?  I would have thought 
Perl modules
would be pretty portable.  If you can't directly install the RPM on 
Redhat you could
extract the files from the RPM and put them in place manually and see if 
that works.
I have used rpm2cpio before to do that.  It might get you running until 
you manage
to compile the source if you find that necessary too.
