My problem is that I can't access some online curriclum. Usually, when I log in using IE, I get a box that asks me for a username and password. But when I log in using Mozilla, all I get is a access denied message from their server. I get no prompt. Can you please help. Thank you in advance.

I've recently installed RedHat 7.2 and I'm trying to get to grips with installing software. I had problems accessing secure sites using Mozilla and found a number of articles stating that there was a known problem in some versions of Mozilla with accessing secure sites. I suspect this might be the answer to your own problem but this in turn raises further problems I've been having.

I've been trying to install a more recent version of Mozilla - though with little success. Ideally I'd like to do this without necessarily using RPMs - for learning purposes. Unfortunately I seem to be encountering problems and I'm getting an error message to the effect that the following file is missing:

libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2

I've tried 'locate libstdc' and - if I understand the information correctly - it seems that I have a higher version of the file installed, namely:

libstdc++-libc6.2-2-2.10.0.so

I've seen a post elsewhere on the forum suggesting that it is possible to create a symbolic link from the new file to the old file to enable the software to be installed. Could anybody expand on how this would be done as I confess this leaves me dumbfounded.

Thanks in advance.

you should try posting your question as a new thread, it is more likely to be read. Thanks for the advice, I will try to download the new version.

Yes - I suspect you're right.
