Thank you Polytropon.  I have installed /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base-fc4
and now I have the following:

      /usr/compat/linux/lib/libnsl-2.3.6.so
      /usr/compat/linux/lib/libnsl.so.1

I have put linux_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf and rebooted the server;
however, I still get the same response.  What am missing?

Regards,

Joe
