I want to start doing our web development in a compiled language (like c) instead of PHP, Perl, etc. Our web host doesn't allow us shell access, but only a cheesy web interface. I believe they are using FreeBSD 3.3 for their web servers. I haven't tried this before, so I want to know if I compile an executable on 4.2 will it run on 3.3? I'm not concerned with file formats (i.e., ELF, a.out), just if it'll run or not. I think it will, but I want to be sure. If not I'll dust off my copy of 3.3. Thanks, Jeremy L.
