Red Hat just gives the ibcs module (ibcs.o) but the required libraries are not
distributed. These libraries are present in SuSE RPM.
Just install the iBCS rpm from SuSE. rpm -ivh ibcs.rpm
put the following statement in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
insmod ibcs
That's all. Now try to run any unix binary. Here we had to change the env. variable
LANG to
export LANG="english_us.ascii"
In case of problems. Go through the documentation. You might have to do some trial and
error.
Hope this helps.
