This works fine on an old Slackware 3.0 box I have here. Granted, it is running kernel 2.2.2 and glibc-2.1 and just about everything on it has been upgraded to current versions, so there is very little original Slackware left. I also tested on a RH-5.2 box, and like you said, it works fine there. -Rasmus -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe send an empty message to php-dev-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For help: php-dev-help@lists.php.net
