Having solved the openAFS problems on solaris10 (x86) platform, I'm now 
turning to a ROCKS client. Here's the client:

uname -a
Linux compute-0-1.local 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Aug 23 00:17:26 CDT 
2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

And I've a set of RPM's which I downloaded:

ls
openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-client-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-compat-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-devel-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-docs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-kernel-1.4.0-2.6.9_22.EL_1.i686.rpm
openafs-kernel-smp-1.4.0-2.6.9_22.ELsmp_1.i686.rpm
openafs-kpasswd-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
openafs-krb5-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm

I'msure this is a function of my newness to Linux, however, the following 
is totally perplexing:

rpm -i openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
         package openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1 is already installed
[root@compute-0-1 RPMS]# rpm -q openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm
package openafs-1.4.0-rhel4.1.i386.rpm is not installed

How can it be installed and not installed?  I actually don't believe it is 
installed as I can find no evidence of the packages contents on the 
system.  Any advice will be appreciated.
