 where can i get this lib and do i just add it to the ldd path?

JR I may be corrected, but I think librarys work like this:

JR   libc.so.4 -- freebsd 4.x
JR   libc.so.3 -- freebsd 3.x

JR Where did you get the packages from? There are different packages on the ftp 
JR site for different versions of FreeBSD:

JR   packages-5-current
JR   packages-5.0-current
JR   packages-4.0-stable

JR I hope this helps.  Alternatively, you could install the compat4x distribution 
JR (which makes your system compatible with 4.x binaries), it is also avialable 
JR on the ftp sites (/pub/freebsd/releases/i386/5.0-DP1/compat4x) 

JR Regards,
JR Jacob

I got them from the 4.6.2 package ./dir because the packages .tbz were
not working via ftp. Pkg_add on any .tbz was giving broken pipe and
non gzip errorsso i started looking on google and found something
that said the .tbz format was broken and it was ok to use the .tgz
packages from the 4.6.2 rel. It appears that held no validity :)

I have been looking on all the ftp/s and have noticed that 5.0-current
has the .tbz format so i guess there is difference in the 5.0 DP1 and
5.0-current. I was wanting to load current, as current as possible. I
have not found any 5.0 current .iso on the ftps. Are there any .iso's
of this as that would be a easier install.

snapshots.jp.FreeBSD.org is one place where you can find ISO-images
that have been built from -CURRENT.

Please do note though, that CURRENT is the experimental, bleeding-edge
version of FreeBSD.  Quoting:
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html

As you read this, keep in mind that FreeBSD-current is the
``bleeding edge'' of FreeBSD development.  FreeBSD-current
users are expected to have a high degree of technical skill,
and should be capable of solving difficult system problems on
their own.  If you are new to FreeBSD, think twice before
installing it.

Regards,
Giorgos.

Thanks, and your right. As i was reading about the current i decided
to stay away from this. I have about 2yrs BSD experience with open but
still i don't think its a good idea to run current when i am trying to
switch to Free and learn it. Getting up one morning and finding cvs
updated and broke something would be a bad vibe at this stage. Thanks
for your help i greatly appreciate it.
