For some reason I had to connect to some VPN provided by a Check Point and since I migrate to Fedora 7 this fails with the following message from the SSL VPN Portal : initialization failed.
My colleague, Den Raf, had the same trouble and pointed me to the segmentation fault of the snx binary 🙁
Installing compat-libstdc++-296 and using the library provided in that package solved the fault :
# LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 snx -h
But I had to reinstall the snx with the snx_install script :
# LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 ~fred/Desktop/snx_install.sh
Then everything worked fine again.
The same problem occurs on Debian Etch or Debian Lenny.
You can solve it by installing "libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2". Run snx_uninstall, then go to the SSLVPN website again.
Thank you for sharing the solution, I’ve had this problem for quite sometime now.
This was perfect and simple solution. Thank you.
Wow. I’ve been looking everywhere for this to work on Ubuntu. I installed the "libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2" package, but snx still couldn’t install. how can i make it work?
thanks in advance.
Ozeuss : what’s your error message when you run snx_install ?
I am actually new to this topic and have not encountered, however, I think this is a good solution, it will surely helps a lot shall I need this kind of information in the future. – Jeffrey Nimer
