What fixes it for me is to rerun the ldconfig, making sure that the /usr/local/applix/axdata/axshlib directory is in the path. What's weird is that this directory is in ldconfig_paths in /etc/rc.conf, but I still run into this. I run ldconfig with the directories in ldconfig_paths in /etc/rc.conf, and Applix starts working properly. http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
