A person, the sysadm. I don't have rights to install anything, I must ask the computer support people, and he said that I had to be "very convincing" to make him do it. Of couse that means that he didn't want to. The same install took one minute on my own Linux computer. :roll:

I suppose his refusal is due to the risk of messing up a RedHatEL installation by installing new software (and I have done that myself some time), but personally I think it is his job to handle. If RedHatEL isn't good enough, he should find a better distribution. (Any suggestions?)
