Alternate question: with 1.1.6-v2 do I need to upgrade a plain Redhat5 to the new glibc/ld/etc? The FAQ talks about this, but I don't understand what it is saying: "The latest versions of the Blackdown JDK have their own built-in loader and libc, which will hopefully make them more robust. Older versions of the JDK 1.1.5 (especially) are much more sensitive. Karl Asha maintains a list JDK-related library issues at: http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/docs/libraries.html. In short, you need glibc-2.0.7 and glibc-devel-2.0.7 or higher on a glibc-based system such as RedHat 5.0 or Debian 2.0." ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Hello, can I run the libc version of 1.1.6 under plain redhat 5 (rather than downloading the glibc and its antecedants, which would be a big project with my unreliable net connection) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- j.p.lewis [EMAIL PROTECTED] 012 345 6789 //www.idiom.com/~zilla
