Plug-ins built on and tested with: plug-in O/S Netscape Product libxrx.so.6.3-freebsd FreeBSD 2.2.2-RELEASE Communicator 4.03b8 libxrx.so.6.3-digunix Digital Unix 4.0 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.sl.6.3-hpux-10.01 HPUX 10.01 Navigator 3.01 libxrx.sl.6.3-hpux-10.20 HPUX 10.20 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.so.6.3-irix IRIX 6.2 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.so.6.3-linux2 S.u.S.E. 5.0 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.so.6.3-solaris Solaris 2.5 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.so.6.3-solaris2.6 Solaris 2.6 Navigator 3.04 libxrx.so.aix4 AIX 4.2 Communicator 4.04 Plugins for Digital Unix, HPUX, IRIX, Solaris, and Linux should also work with released and beta versions of Communicator, although I haven't tried it for myself. The HPUX-10.01 plug-in may also work on HPUX 9. For Solaris 2.5 and earlier use libxrx.so.6.3-solaris, otherwise use libxrx.so.6.3-solaris2.6. (The Linux plug-in should work on most any Linux ELF system, but Linux is as Linux does and if you have a custom one-of-a-kind system, or can otherwise be considered to be "on the bleeding edge" and and the plug-in doesn't work, then now may be the time you're going to bleed.) I'll presume that you know how to install a Netscape Plug-in. If not, consult your Netscape documentation or get the X11R6.3 release notes. Once installed, restart Netscape. If you get a popup dialog that says the program can't connect to your display and the name looks right, there are two things you can check. First, if you're organization has a firewall that is configured to block X protocol you need to fix that -- consult your local system administrator for assistance. Second, if you have a network that's connected to the Internet via PPP or SLIP to an ISP, your machine's name and IP address on your private network may not match the name and IP address that's assigned by DHCP when you connect. The plug-in will try to figure this out, but if you run Netscape on a host that's not directly connected to your ISP then the plug-in won't be able to determine the correct name. You may be able to work around this by setting the XREALDISPLAY environment variable and restarting Netscape. Let me emphasize that these plug-ins are provided AS IS! If they don't work for you, please submit a bug-report. You can get a bug-report template from ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6.3/xc/bug-report. Fill it out and email it to xbugs@x.org. Provide as much information as possible. If there isn't enough information to duplicate your problem then there's little or no chance that we'll be able to fix it. Don't send anything but bug-reports to xbugs@x.org. If you send anything else, it'll be ignored and deleted.
