Lines: 23 Message-ID: <4ijsag$onq@news.cais.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 204.157.126.254 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 1.1N (Windows; I; 32bit) This problem cropped up out of the blue, and a back-up and re-install did not fix it. I have (had) a working-perfectly 2.1.0R installation of FreeBSD, with which I was greatly pleased. Apache, uemacs. bash, etc. (even "unknown" Netscape). In my usual fashion, I began playing around with configurations, fouled some things up pretty good, and what-the-heck, nothing crucial is running, so I just went ahead and reinstalled. Apache, popper, popclient, and uemacs now claim that libc.so.3.0 cannot be found. This does not seem surprising, since libc.so.2.2.0 is the version in residence, and has been all along. Is there a libc.so.3.0? That would seem to be the easiest way to fix things, even assuming that the error should not be happening in the first place. ldconfig seems to be doing its job. I have no idea. Whatsoever. And really, I'm not as stupid as this sounds.
