How did you upgrade? Via booting from the CD's and selecting
'upgrade'? or via yum?

Did you have custom installed versions of openvpn and apache that you
built from source? If so, there is no way for the upgrade to know
about them since they are outside it's package system.

You could try re-installing the fc5 versions of those packages:

(first remove them)

rpm -e httpd openvpn

then re-install:

yum install httpd openvpn

Gordon> Also - I get an error with find:

That is a normal output from the /selinux directory when you run find
on it. You can can -prune it or ignore that message.

Gordon> Any thoughts on where to start to get things running again?

You could try re-installing packages that are having problems, or you
could just re-install a fresh fc5 install and restore your user data
from backups.
