I guess the issues you'd face are: - different architecture (could be 64bit?) - wrong libraries It might be easier if you can build a statically-linked version of python -- although it appears that can have issues: http://bytes.com/groups/python/23235-build-static-python-executable-linux Or upload the python sources and build it there (do they provide gcc?). -- John. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
