Re: "proper" place for the .so native libraries
=>From: "Ted Neward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> =>... =>Does "had good luck" mean without having to modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Or =>/etc/ld.so.conf? Yes. If you run the java script with "sh -x" (you have to give it the full path to the script, too, IIRC) you'll see that it calculates a CLASSPATH and a LD_LIBRARY_PATH that it uses to run the JVM. d. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I'd highly recommend that you investigate the "not-static" binaries, these have no X widgets linked in - and as a result any attempt to load AWT classes will fail with a NoClassDefFoundError. But on the otherhand, it means that an old 386 running RH5.2 which has no concept of *X*, let alone motif vs lesstif, can quite happily chew on java bytecode day in and day out and never know what it's missing. I've set up such machines, once we got that _ns set of binaries a lot of my headaches ended. This is further proof that Sun just doesn't understand Java on the server. -=Chris cabbey at home dot net <*> http://members.home.net/cabbey I want a binary interface to the brain!

JDK1.2pre2 certainly doesn't (libXm appears to be statically linked into libawt.so), and I believe something similar was done for some of the JDK1.1 executables and/or libraries.

Be warned--emails with "LINKS.VBS" are a virus attack
This is not a spam; over the past week, I've received several emails containing the text "Check this" with an attachment, "LINKS.VBS", which several email virus-scanners have flagged as a virus. It's intended as just a warning/FYI; I don't want to perpetuate a myth, but this looks real--Norton/Symantec's product as well as a few others have flagged and caught this.
