With all due respect (meaning: I don't want to start a flame war here), Solaris 2.4 was released close to 7 years ago. If I were a developer I would probably not have it very high on my list of priorities either. I would be surprised if Sun has not end-of-life'd Solaris 2.4, actually. My recollection from doing Y2K-related updating is that the oldest OS Sun would support after 12/31/1999 was Solaris 2.5.1 and only then if you applied the Y2K patch set for it. -dan Previously, Maciek Uhlig said: > Directory functions still don't work under Solaris 2.4 too. > > I personally think it's something what shouldn't happen at all: major > script language doesn't fully work with major operating system (agreed, a > liitle outdated, but with patches it's no need to upgrade this OS).
