[OAUGNetDBA]-Re: R12 on 64 bit RH Linux

["Robin Walker" <robinwalker@email.com>]

I did it wit 12.0.1, maybe a year ago or more, so I don't remember any
particulars. My viewpoint was from the aspect that a 32 bit install was a no
brainer, whereas the 64 bit got into all the compatibility issues you would
expect... having said that, I have had a lot more experience in building
stuff in linux now (apaches, etc), so I daresay it would be a lot easier for
me if I tried now.

That release note I mentioned should be a complete list.  Their R12
release notes have been very good and I've successfully installed R12
onto Linux 64-bit using nothing but this note.
