and his libc.so.2.2 has a newer date (by several months), and is bigger
(by a few hundred bytes). If this doesn't this mean I have an out-of-date
libc.so.2.2, it's at least *different* than Gary Palmer's "reference" box.
How exactly it's different I don't know, but an April libc in a July SNAP
is kinda suspicious, no?

Please excuse me if I'm making no sense... I've been at work since
0800 and it's now 2230. I guess I'm grasping for anything that might
explain my NIS woes.
