john thanks for the info, i will surely be able to see
if that works when i decide to upgrade my server to
centos. now then if 9i is built to centos-2 then what

equvilant version of centos-3 libs or they still the
libs same as the lower version of oracle? that is
still being equal to centos-2 libs.
