Right, They are available for both Solaris and Linux. You need to make
sure that your sysname is set properly. You can do this using "fs
sysname". You can also define more than one sysname, as we do for most
Linux boxes on campus. For instance on a Realm Linux RHEL4 machine it
would be "'ia32_rhel4' 'i386_linux26' 'i386_linux24'".
