ARSPerl 1.9.1 (and later) supports the 7.1 libraries.  You can use the 7.1 
libraries to connect to a 6.3 server.  I believe you still need to use a 32 bit 
version of perl (which will run on the 64 bit version of RHEL).

The Makefile.PL in step 2 defaults to version 7.1 of the libraries:

   # STEP 2 -> Choose your version of ARS FROM THE FOLLOWING LIST
   #
   #                  2.0 2.1 3.0 3.1 3.2 4.0 4.52 5.0 6.0 6.01 6.3 7.0 7.1
   #
   #           notes
   #            - if there is a maintenace number (e.g. 4.5.2)
   #              then use "4.52" NOT "4.5.2"
   #            - ONLY use the choices listed above. note that
   #              not all versions are on the list. specify the
   #              version that is closest to yours without exceeding
   #              your version (e.g. for 4.5 you would specify 4.0, NOT
   #            4.52)
   #
   $ARSVERSION = 7.1;

Subject: ARSPERL on RHEL to talk to ARS 6.3?

Is anybody doing this? 
Has anybody successfully complied ARSPerl on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 or 5 ? 
I believe we have 64bit servers.

ARSPerl 1.9 install guide talks about needing ARS 2-5 API libraries. However 
arsperl.org web site talks about being compatible with ARS 7.1. Does anybody 
know if that means ARSPerl can use 7.1 libraries or that ARSPerl using older 
ARS libraries can talk to ARS 7.1?

I need to move ARSPerl setup from a solaris box to RHEL box. The ARS server is 
6.3, so I think I need 6.3 ARS libraries or earlier to work on RHEL. Not sure 
if such libraries exist.

TIA.
