Static linking and memory usage

If I have an executable which is staticly linked with many copies of it running (a CGI script in fact), will all those copies share the text segment of the executable on the disc, or will it actually use up real memory resource with many copies of the executable ? I have been assuming the former, b

Adobe flash media server compatibility?

Is it possible to use Adobe Flash Media Server on FreeBSD? It appears as if Adobe Flash Media Server is only compatible with Red Hat, but I read somewhere that a fix was made so that it could be made compatible with Ubuntu. Is there similar fix for FreeBSD? Thanks for your thoughts. Albert

using the flash media server with FreeBSD

Hello, everyone. I'm sorry if this is a repost, but my first posting message got marked as spam, apparently. In any event, I am attempting to use the Adobe Flash Media Server with freeBSD, but I was wondering if it was in fact compatible. I know that other versions of Linux can be used with this

Re: Adobe flash media server compatibility?

You're obviously going to have to modify the install scripts to recognize FreeBSD in addition to RHEL3 & RHEL4. When I tried it on -CURRENT there was some symbol versioning issue so I just installed it in a CentOS VM instead (its not for me and its only being used for development). You'll probably
