It sounds like an interaction between xmaple and the resolver; there have also been some resolver problems reported with StarOffice that I haven't been able to reproduce (maybe because I have a local nameserver?). Can you look for and try a later Linux libc? They are often found on Sunsite or similar heavy-duty Linux FTP servers, or you can try a search for "libc.5.4.38" and see what you turn up. Thanks, mike
