What architecture? Assuming you mean Intel, which a lot of
people seem to think of as the default architecture, then there
are several you can try. I believe I ended up uwing the
linux one with linux compatability package installed: ftp to
ftp.netscape.com in pub/communicator/4.04/shipping/english/unix/linux20
to get that one.
Other things that might work would include the bsdi or freebsd
versions. The most recent I could find are at ftp.netscape.com in
pub/communicator/4.04/development/english/unix/ ; those are betas,
there may be more stable ones down some other 4.0n tree....
If you mean alpha, you might want to see whether the dec_unix
port works. If you try that, I'd be interested in the results.
