You're thinking of the binfmt_misc kernel feature. I don't know if anyone has made an rpm for it, but with one you can register a new interpreter to the kernel:
echo ':ExecutableJAR:E::jar::/usr/local/bin/jarwrapper:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register (in this case, jarwrapper is the java jar runner script from the binfmt_misc documentation; install kernel-docs rpm to read about it) Putting this line in your /etc/rc.d/rc.local should be enough. groeten, Kj [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
