Well, first, it appears that you're trying to install a RH6 RPM on an RH5 kernel (if not RH5 system), which can never be guaranteed. > depsolving problems > --> Missing Dependency: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.7)(64bit) is needed by > > yum resolvedep libc.so.6 > Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security > 0:glibc-2.5-65.i686 First, notice the missing dependency line: (GLIBC_2.7)(64bit) If I'm reading "glibc-2.5-65.i686" correctly, then you need the 64-bit version of glibc, but even if you installed it, you'd still only have version 2.5 and apparently the dependency needed is glibc-2.7. I could be wrong, but I think that's the problem. You could try compiling it yourself, perhaps. If you need an RPM though, you may just have to look for ones built for RH5. -- Bryan Burke IT Administrator Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science University of Tennessee, Knoxville bbu...@eecs.utk.edu (865) 974-4694 _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
