Looked at this before, I had not taken it as strict os version / unidata version mandatory. This is the first time for me to see a software package that runs on linux has issues like this from distriburion version level so it has taken me by surprise. The server unidata is running on is currently not a generic installation from a specific version. libc has been recompiled to get ldap to function. It was originally a Redhat 7.0 install. The kernel has also been recompiled for large memory support and dual processor support. I have contacted my software vendor which we pay for unidata support to get them to send me the latest unidata version. I have installation disks to install the version of Redhat for the above linked matrix. Once I get an os-version with a unidata version approved in the matrix I will try again. https://www-927.ibm.com/software/data/u2/support/u2techconnect/binary.htm Many thanks to Tim and Ken for the information.
