What I do know is that ParaView can be downloaded from their website as a binary RHEL 64 bit. However, the paraFoam utility will not work and the only way to access the case is by creating a .foam extension in the directory. By any chance do you know how to do this?

IIRC it was already posted on the forum, but to use built-in OpenFOAM reader in paraview, you need to modify 2 lines (lines 71 and 73 for OpenFOAM 2.3.0) in paraFoam script:

# reader extension
extension=foam

requirePV=0

or use paraFoam with -builtin command line option (it does the same):

...
# parse options
while [ "$#" -gt 0 ]
do
    case "$1" in
    ...
    -builtin)
        extension=foam
        requirePV=0
        shift
        ;;
...
