Hello,

I have installed OpenFOAM on an X86_64 machine running RHEL 5 but cannot seem to get FoamX running. I have successfully created symbolic links for libssl.so.0.9.8b, libcrypto.so.0.9.8b, and libebl_x86_64-0.125.so. However, I have not been able to figure out how to resolve the following error (which I believe is related to libX.s0.6 symbolic link).

[cmerrill@penguin ~]$ FoamX
Starting NameServer with inet:penguin.ara.wan:1234 ...
Starting FoamX Host Browser with inet:penguin.ara.wan:1234 ...

Any suggestions? I am a newbie. Thank you.
