I don't have root acount. is there any method to install a newer glibc in my home directory and use some tricky to let the binary application running using my glibc? here is my environment: $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: :core-3.0-amd64:core-3.0-noarch:graphics-3.0-amd64:graphics-3.0-noarch Distributor ID: RedHatEnterpriseAS Description: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 3) Release: 4 Codename: NahantUpdate3
