That's what I was wondering!?!  I know the packages exist, because I
have them, but it looks like RH5.2 doesn't install shadow by default. 
I'm looking on my home machine too and it doesn't have shadow
installed.  I do remember some install program asking me this question
though.  Maybe I just missed it on these two machines.
