(in other words, is there an archive somewhere of older RedHat releases.) I need it for a project I'm working on, the plan is to install it in a virtual machine running under VMware for Linux, and then install InterBase 4 on it. Why? I don't really see why you should use vmware, oh well :) (FYI -in case anyone hasn't heard, Inprise/Borland's InterBase 6 is about to be open-sourced, which would make it the most full-featured free database available under Linux.) Yes, I heard something about it. Most important part is that Delphi for Linux is comming out in 2K. :) Basically my motivation is to get a jump on learning and using the InterBase SQL database before the open source release, -(Interbase 4, is already free, but only certified to run on RedHat 4.2) Is also works on Redhat 6.0, 6.1 and Caldera OpenLinux 2.2 and 2.3. I tried it. Only a couple of utils seem to core dump the lot. But there is where the Interbase administration kit comes in. It comes with every Inprise/Borland CD-ROM containing Interbase 4 or higher. Alternately, is there any way to get the older InterBase to run on RedHat 6.1, which I'm using at home.. (At work we're a Debian shop, so I'd be running VMware under that distro, and RedHat in that..) Just install and it shoudl work :) If any helpful person could email me at work with any archive pointers, I'd really appreciate it. My work email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks muchly! Don't thank me... Thank the Linux community :) Chris Yours, Niels Wagenaar -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.

Re: Getting a copy of RedHat 4.2 / InterBase open-source release
I might, might have acopy of RH4.2 on CD-rom at home, if I have I'll email you them if you want. Excuse my ignorance you do seem to know a lot more than me but is'nt the point of filling your hd with libs backwards compatability?

I wonder if the distributors, such as CheapBytes, might still have some of the old ones lying around?
