Hmm, doesn't work all the time:
thoreau:~ 649% ls -l /usr/local/bin/machine_name
-rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 4302 Jan 10 1994 /usr/local/bin/machine_name*
thoreau:~ 650% ldd /usr/local/bin/machine_name
/usr/local/bin/machine_name:
-lc.2 => /usr/lib/libc.so.2.1 (0x4001a000)
Anything older isn't dynamically linked :)
Simon.
