Here's the output of the /opt/sybase/master.dat

Looks like I have to rebuild the  kernel again...I don't remember seeing
a shmget
parameter in the 'make config'
script when I originally built this kernel.  What option (or parameter)
do I have
to set to implement the shmget
function?

Thanks in advance...

System V IPC

(under General setup in make menuconfig).

I am not sure of the kernel that SUSE 6.3 is built on, but if it is 2.2x,
you do not have to rebuild the kernel.  See the FAQ at Michael Peppler's
home page (http://www.mbay.net/~mpeppler).

Good idea - but in this case the error was "function not implemented" which
probably means that the kernel needs to be rebuilt with the System V IPC 
turned on.
