If I need to do that, then the linuxulator is broken :-) I don't know anything about the RH release process. I do know that it's quite normal for the RH distribution (or can I say Linux distributions in general) to have multiple different rpms with the same name (grrr). > Would the versions on the Red Hat CD work as well?

They were downloadable from my homepage (http://people.freebsd.org/~marcel/ as it is called now IIRC) and may even still be downloadable. The 6.0 ports were at least as broken as the RH distribution itself... -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
