I am running a CentOS 3 server with a kernel version -2.4.21-40. I typically use Webmin to accomplish mounting varied filesystems, but this one has me buffaloed.
When I try to mount it as an Apple hfs, I get a message that the fs type is not supported by this kernel.

This is not a helpful reply but I believe the CentOS 4 and 5 kernels have hfs file system support turned on. If this is not the case with CentOS 3, you would have to either rebuild the kernel or compile the hfs kernel module.

Actually, this is part of what I was looking for as an answer. I wasn't sure if the kernel had that support or not and wasn't sure how to discover whether it had so or not. Unfortunately, a lot of the servers I run can't be updated regularly due to a few non-Open source programs running on them, and the time to shut down, upgrade OS, and recompile is not always there.
Thanks for the reply , and a little help towards the solution. If I find a spare machine to put a newer release on, I will proceed.
