That's strange... under Redhat 7.2, I didn't have to do any of that.  I had
a pre-existing Truetype directory and when I restarted xfs, it re-indexed my
available fonts.

Or, if you are using xfs (the font server, not the filesystem), you need
to add a line to it's config, usually /etc/X11/fs/config.
