Hi Helen,
Thanks for pointing me to the correct info.
I'll go for the first option (disable NPTL).
A colleague of mine mentioned a manual build of SS on that Redhat9

best regards,
Dirk Naudts.
PS. : In the mean time I've got your book (and read half of it so
far), and it's great (Those statistics finally make sense now)
