Required Patches

The iPlanet Web Server, Enterprise Edition 4.1 is now compiled using the n32 Application

Binary Interface. This ABI was introduced on IRIX 6.2 and is the recommended ABI for

high-performance 32-bit applications.

If you are using a third-party application or plug-in to a previous version of Netscape

Enterprise Server, you must obtain n32 versions of these binaries and DSOs from your

application vendor.

To verify that you are using a n32 binary, simply issue the file(1) command against it. It should

return a message as follows:

filename: ELF N32 MSB mips-3 dynamic lib MIPS - version 1

filename: ELF N32 MSB mips-4 dynamic lib MIPS - version 1

For more information on n32 please consult the ABI(5) manual page.
