Doug: I'm echoing this back to DebianUser so that hopefully someone who has seen this happen before will help. I never had this kind of problem before and I've been using netscape since v3.05. What I say below is nothing more than guesses.

I'm assuming you are running hamm, right? The only thing I can think of at this point is that the netscape binary is trying to link with libc5 instead of libc6 (glibc). Compare the output of 'ldd /usr/local/netscape/netscape' with 'ldconfig -p'. Perhaps you have LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your environment, thats causing the trouble? -- Ed C.
