Dan, All,

Thanks Dan, for this.

I had old pkgsrc. It's now current.
I'll give the solaris version a go before I try mozilla.

Regarding the solaris libraries, do they have to be
solaris 2.5.1? Or are solaris 7 or solaris 8 libs ok?
Anyone?

[I have some old solaris install cd's that I
might be able to get the libs off.]


cheers,
Paul.
