The kernel version is not so important, it's the libc version
but most glibc2.0 programs will work with glibc2.1, but it's the opposite
that is not true.

I'm still running the same version of Netscape I was running when I had
glibc2.0.

If the version of Netscape you have requires libc5, you will need to
install the libc5 compatibility library. (There IS one supplied with RH6.2
isn't there?)

anyway.. TRY it and see. If it doesn't work, it doesn't work.
If it works, you've gained something.
