I used mc-4.6.0-9.i386.rpm and it worked fine, but I wanted to know why rpm --rebuild didn't work. As for Tom's advice I don't have /etc/popt . Guess I need to create one

I used the following link
ftp://195.220.108.108/linux/redhat/updates/9/en/os/i386/mc-4.6.0-7.9.i386.rp
m which is running fine on my system.
Hi,

This has nothing to do with /etc/popt, in current RPM versions, the use of rpm --rebuild is deprecated. It is recommended to use this: rpmbuild --rebuild
rpm --rebuild doesn't work on RHEL3 either.

From 'man rpm':
Add the following lines to /etc/popt if you wish to continue invoking rpmbuild from the rpm command line:
rpm exec --bp rpmb -bp rpm exec --bc rpmb -bc rpm exec --bi rpmb -bi rpm exec --bl rpmb -bl rpm exec --ba rpmb -ba rpm exec --bb rpmb -bb rpm exec --bs rpmb -bs rpm exec --tp rpmb -tp rpm exec --tc rpmb -tc rpm exec --ti rpmb -ti rpm exec --tl rpmb -tl rpm exec --ta rpmb -ta rpm exec --tb rpmb -tb rpm exec --ts rpmb -ts rpm exec --rebuild rpmb --rebuild rpm exec --recompile rpmb --recompile rpm exec --clean rpmb --clean rpm exec --rmsource rpmb --rmsource rpm exec --rmspec rpmb --rmspec rpm exec --target rpmb --target rpm exec --short-circuit rpmb --short-circuit

just use 'rpmbuild' its what it was designed for.

I would also recommend using the FC1 or FC2 repositories of SRPMS, they are more compatible with RHEL3 than the older Centos2/RHEL2 sources. Even though mc hasn't been updated, they may have tweaked a build step, who knows.

Use the rpm-build package, and go the route of rpmbuild --rebuild like everyone suggests; using popt is a crutch that will just get you into trouble later I'm sure, better to learn the new ways.

I have a handful of servers and desktop computers here running CentOS 3.1. When I try to use ftp from a default CentOS 3.1 install, the ftp client segfaults when I try to "mget something*". When I use ftp from a Gentoo client to "mget something*" from the same ftp server, it works properly. Any ideas?
The test ftp server is vsftp running on a local CentOS 3.1 server.
I might be way off it, but what kernel are you using?

I've been lax in responding to my own e-mail; I discovered the cause of the problem earlier this afternoon.
Evidently my iptable rules are not properly set up for FTP. When iptables is active, passive FTP doesn't work at all and my ftp client crashes. With iptables inactive, passive FTP works fine and I hadn't tried non-passive.
The kernel version was the latest stock CentOS EL; I believe that's 2.4.21-9.0.3.
