Hi !

I really would like to use RH 9, but some of the commercial
apps I am using are available for RH 7.3 only.

I have tried to install the compatibility packages but am
still unable to get the 7.3 app running. Perhaps I 'm missing
a step ?!

Specifically, I am getting the following error when I try to
run the 7.3 app on RH 9.0:

rh_7.3_app: relocation error: /tools/libwinsock44.so: symbol h_errno,
version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

Is there anyway to get this working ? Any pointers to
how-to's etc. appreciated.

Thanks a lot in advance !

Kind Regards,
rudi
