copying might work (given the executable doesnt somehow use it's own location for finding other stuff, which might be the case), it's just not elegant. he would have to put the libjava.so into /usr/local/lib, though, not in bin. Or to screw up majorly, he could add /usr/local/bin to /etc/ld.so.conf ;) (dont to that!) you should definitely try the export commands we gave you earlier instead. it's the "suggested" way to do it. otherwise you'd have to put all the other tools in your bin too (tnameserv, jar, javac...) your shell will look at the PATH environment variable and check all the directories there for finding executables (e.g. when you enter "java"). So just append /usr/java/bin or whatever (using ":" as delimiter) to your PATH environment variable using the export command. _______________________________________________ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
