Gordon, I forgot to mention... most of the machines using this run Linux RH 7.x. However, I do have two machines running Tru64 5.x. The issues are a little bit different, but still regarding shared memory.
I'll post my 'make test' fails for good measure in another post.

The errors I receive are (1) seg fault, (2) cannot find symbol iconv_open (during the loading of Sybase.so) and (3) "Had to create DBD::Sybase::dr::imp_data_size unexpectedly". Oh, and sometimes it works. The errors always happen during the DBI -> connect (). My guess is that memory is being trashed somewhere. I figure I need to use DBD::ODBC and OpenLink's SQL Server 2000 driver to get the connection working. If you have wisdom as to what may be wrong, please (I beg, gravel of you) to tell me what is really failing. - Versions: OS Tru64 Unix 4.0F Apache 1.3.27 Freetds 0.60 DBD-Sybase 0.91 and 0.95 Openssl 0.9.6g Perl 5.8.0 Mod_perl 1.27 Mod_ssl 2.8.12 DBI 1.32 Expat 1.95.6 - This (for now) is an attempt to connect to microsoft sql server 6.5. - There are no errors if I use the sybase libraries instead of freetds. Thank you! -- Gord
