Re: Yay! Victory RevServer runs on FreeBSD with Linux Compat installed.

Folks, For anyone following this, I was unable to connect with MySQL or SQLite database using linux compatibility in FreeBSD. I believe that RevDB External and the Database Drivers need some uninstalled shared libraries but since they are no in ELF Format, I can't use ldd to find out whos missing.
