I'm confused here. If you compiled it from source, then it should be using whatever version of glibc that you have, not some other version. Or did it not compile successfully due to a glibc-2.3 prereq? > My question is, would I be able to simply make the glibc 2.3 binary > available for the program and have it run?

Going to 3.x is another story altogether. If you plan to maintain this box for a long time, you'll be saving youself a ton of grief by upgrading glibc. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lonni J Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Step-by-step & TyGeMo http://netllama.ipfox.com _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
