Hi

I was wondering if there is any way to work around the lack of =
gethostbyname_r on FreeBSD 6?

I installed the Diablo JDK 1.6 for FreeBSD 6 for i386 today and =
executing programs that use the network like openfire generate:

 /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: =
/usr/public/diablo-jdk1.6.0/jre/lib/i386/libnet.so: Undefined symbol =
"gethostbyname_r"


Seeing as this Diablo was made for FreeBSD 6 I would have thought that =
this sort of thing would have been taken care of.=20

I searched in Google but only saw reports of this with no possible work =
arounds.

The system in question is not able to be upgraded right now though it =
may get replaced early next  year and bring us up to speed FreeBSD wise.

Thanks
Chad
