For some reason i cannot post a follow up message the original posting
using google interface.

Lenard, thankyou. I have since lost my connection, it dropped a couple
of hours ago, but there is a guy at the servers location that is able
to go to the machine and do as you suggested.

I cannot thankyou enough... and yes, lesson learned. It wasnt fun
fessing up to the boss this afternoon.

Regards,

Tam

Use rpmi to fix the problem;

/usr/lib/rpm/rpmi -Uvh glibc-2.2.93-5.i386.rpm --force
