ya, versions of 8i have issues with the 2.4 kernels and the glibc versions
they usually acoompany. technet.oracle.com provides better answers than i
will, but i recall only linking specific binarys, not the whole bunch, so
relinking intermedia shoud do the trick. if you want more input, lemme
know...

(the reason test.e.o works is because the oracle box behind that site is
the 2.2.19 kernel, hence no issues with oracle 8.1.7(which *was* our old
production DB a couple months ago). if this is a huge issue(intermedia),
just lemme know and i'll sacrifice my first child and update oreo to the
latest greatest version of 8i :)
