Re: LD_PRELOAD problem

Hi all

I have more information, I did a chatr to check differences between working server oracle binary and the non working.

I see two differences, in the server which LD_PRELOAD doesnt cause problem oracle binary has these two attributes:

explicit unloading disabled
linkage table protection disabled

Does anyone know how can I change these attributes with chatr?

Cheers
