hmmm.  ash was included with EL3 and EL4, but appears to have been dropped in EL5.  its a stripped down bourne shell, you might just try

$ sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/ash

and see if that OpenQRM thing works like that.

or, I found this, http://blog.carlosgomez.net/2009/10/data-center-management-with-openqrm-on.h... which implies the ash el4 rpm will work.

Thanx John,

I already tried soft linking bash to ash, but I think that the installer is looking for ash in the RPM's database, since I'm installing from rpm.

I also read through that article, and that's where I also came to the conclusion that it may not be available for CentOS 5, but wasn't sure.
