Howdy,

I just found that strange file in /etc:

[root@borg /etc]# pico rmtab

(contains nothing)

[root@borg /etc]# rpm -fq /etc/rmtab
file /etc/rmtab is not owned by any package
[root@borg /etc]# ls -l rmtab
-rw-rw-rw-   1 root     root            0 Nov  2 23:50 rmtab
[root@borg /etc]# 

So, what is it?
