You cannot move binaries from DOS to Linux especially on different hardware platforms. You need to rebuild from source.
-----Original Message----- Hi. We are new to Linux and trying to move workload from a DOS pc to a Linux lpar on a MP3000. I created a /home directory and a user, copied (via binary ftp) a .exe to this linux directory. I could not execute it so I did a chmod 111 on the file. On a tera term session I type /home/richl/RLBL253.EXE and press enter and receive message bash: /home/richl/RLBL253.EXE: cannot execute binary file ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
