Thanks, and where can I find a version of ext2resize that will work with
Centos 4.4? I've searched rpm mirrors and can find anything. I did some
research and some say that it was taken out with some problems, but may
work again? Will this one be ok, or is there a better version?
Looks like the latest here is 1.1.19
