Re: Compatability

Hello,

	I think that there are some suttle differences. Apache 2.x in RH 9.0
from Apache 1.3.x inRH 7.3, PHP for instance is not a module as in 7.3
Apache.

	Additionally, RH 9.0 has the new NPTL for threading libraries along
with the old stuff. This is something to be aware of as there will be
different stuff in some binaries maybe ... I think that also glibc is
also different in RH 9 I thinks that its an upgrade really.

	Take a look at the release notes for the OS etc etc.

	Cheers,

	Aly.
