Re: [ferret_users] Need help in ferret installation

[Karl.Smith@xxxxxxxx]

Hi Paul,

It sounds like you downloaded the RHEL5 version of Ferret.  The RHEL6
version of Ferret uses the newer versions of the libraries.  That being
said, we are still working on getting a 32-bit RHEL6 version of Ferret
out.  That should occur very soon.

Karl
