So I'm sortof clueless when it comes to linux-guts issues. My machine
is semi-supported by sys admins so I haven't had the pleasure (?) of
paying much attention to real maintanence stuff.

in /usr/lib :

ls -al | grep libc
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root      1197954 Apr  8  1997 libc.a
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           24 Oct  9  1997 libc.so -> 
../../lib/libc.so.5.3.12
(among other stuff)

I think I'm still running basically just plain ol RedHat 5.0 :

uname -a
Linux ********.globeset.com 2.0.30 #1 Wed Jun 4 15:02:33 EDT 1997 i686 unknown

Newer Redhat installations have some kind of problem with our automount
setup, and have to reboot like every week or two. Everytime our sysadmin
has asked me if I want to upgrade, my answer has been no because of
this aoutmounter problem, well that and the fact that netscape, gcc,
emacs, and tin work fine, so I don't really care what version of anything
else is running.

My confusion: Should I even bother trying to download the JDK1.2 thing and 
getting it to work? Or am I too far in the stone age? Green threads, JIT 
off, getting "hello world" to work is all I really want right now, alghouth 
I probably will be attempting some serious development in the near future.
