Not overwriting the ELF version is probably more "right" than overwriting it. But this is just a technicality :-) In short: yes, I don't think you had a choice, other than upgrading the aout binary. Try making a directory with aout libraries (say /compat/linux/lib/aout) and setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to it when you run aout binaries. -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ The FreeBSD project mailto:marcel@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
