>Originator:     Thomas David Rivers
>Release:        FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE i386
>Organization:
Dignus,LLC
>Environment:

	3.1-RELEASE installed fromt the Walnut Creek CD.  X11 installed.

>Description:

	The /usr/X11R6/lib/aout libraries appear to be incorrect.  Running
	either the aout jdk, or netscape will cause the following error
	message:

	/usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "___inet_addr" called from netscape:/usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libX11.so.6.1 at 0x20c3d944


>How-To-Repeat:

	Do a clean 3.1-RELEASE install.
	Install the communicator 4.08 package
	Try to run it.

>Fix:

	I solved the problem by mounting the 2.2.8 Installation CD
	and copying the libraries from the XF86333/Xbin.tgz tar-ball
	to /usr/X11R6/lib/aout.  (I note these are dated Nov. while
	the compat libraries in 3.1 are dated later.)

	I suggest updating the lib/aout files with the previous contents
	from FreeBSD 2.2.8.
