Richard ...
6.2 shmoooo ...
The number that means something is the kernel release ....
not the Red Hat distribution ...
and the error is saying you need a more up-todate version of
the glibc ... no surprises here ...
Check out the GNU site for the glibc
and kernel.org for the latest 2.4 kernel ....
