Not free, but fairly cheap: <http://www.wonderdesk.com> It's written in
perl, with either a flat file ($499) or MySQL backend ($1,499). It seems
to have similar functionality to RT. It's not my intention to start a
discussion about whether it's better than RT or not.  I'm a *very* happy
RT user. I learned about wonderdesk only when the main campus help desk
chose to adopt it instead of RT, which I recommended.  Wonderdesk runs on
Win2K and Unix/Linux.

Thanks again for RT!
