I don't know if it's the full-fledged database service, or just a client. I've only been working with it a few weeks off-and-on. I think this issue is probably due to the 6i utilities being compiled on a 64bit platform. I am going to guess that the Makefiles for 6i need to specify -m32 so gcc doesn't assume 64-bit compiles. I'm not sure though, just a theory at this point. -- Flambeau Inc. Technology Center - Baraboo, WI Email : tblader at flambeau.com Keyserver: http://pgp.mit.edu KeyID: 0x00E9EC2C
