LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not the same as the ASSUME KERNEL variable

Hi Jared,

Yes you are right!!..you could have re-directed me to google if you
didnt want to give suggestions, Thanks for your valuable reply. But my
question in general is why in some case we assume LD_ASSUME_KERNEL.
are there any particular reason?.

I don't understand this sentence.  It seems to imply that you don't think
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is necessary with 10g.

Yes I thought the same that 10g doesnot require any Kernel assumptions.
Correct me if iam wrong.

reg,
Anand
