Thank you for your immediate attention. I see the the following when I tried on one of the machines=> %strings -a {programName} | grep GCC ... GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.2.2 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) GCC: (GNU) 3.3.1 (SuSE Linux) ... It is strange because I have Centos 4.2, Shouldn't it be showing RedHat ? instead of SuSE ? And why do I see differenence in the minor version numbers.
