There is no special VLC package for Red Hat anymore. The available package is for Fedora, another free Red Had clone.
Here is, how to install the package:

Usually what you have is called the source. You 'd need to compile it and apply the supporting files (dependency's).

Pretty sure RH4 is rpm based. Get an RPM and install it that way.

"Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
