Hi Joe, "GCC 2.96" is not a GCC release. It is a Red Hat release, and not supported by GCC. You may have better luck getting your question answered on a Red Hat forum that supports 2.96. That being said, your question does not strike me as particular to 2.96, but rather a generic Linux linker & loader question. You may want to investigate the linker -rpath switch (used via -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/gc/2.96 by the gcc toolchain driver), which can be used to bake in the desired shared library path into your application. Note for the paranoid: there is potential for a security hole, especially if using relative paths. There may be other caveats, such as which path has precedence and such, that you'll want to double-check. HTH, --Eljay
