Missing Commands In Scientific Linux 6

After using virt-manager to set up a Scientific Linux 6 virtual machine, I was surprised to find ‘man’ and several other commands missing.  So, here is a list of missing commands I found and their corresponding packages.

Command Package
host bind-utils
man man
rsync rsync
scp openssh-clients

Note:  I used the command ‘rpm -qf <file>’ on a Fedora 14 machine to determine the packages.

Update: I’ve also seen this happen with minimal installs of RHEL 6 and CentOS 6.
