I get the following message when trying to install netscape in Core 6.
Any ideas would be appreciated.Or a way to make Firefox more like
Netscape. They both use Mozilla. It work fine on RH 7.3 and Core 3.
Thanks for your help.

[root@localhost netscape-installer]# ./netscape-installer
bash: ./netscape-installer: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
[root@localhost
netscape-installer]#

Netscape 7.2 is old and not supported on FC6,the current replacement is
seamonkey. Try typing the command as root;
yum install seamonkry

Kevin,
I don't think this helps. Or I'm doing something wrong.

[root@localhost netscape-installer]# ./netscape-installer
bash: ./netscape-installer: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
[root@localhost netscape-installer]# ls -l /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Nov 30 19:35 /bin/sh -> bash
[root@localhost netscape-installer]#

Good, seamonkey is installed now use it.

$ /usr/bin/seamonkey

Or exit the GUI and use it from the start menu
Internet-->Seamonkey Web Browser

Forget about installing netscape 7.2, it is old (August 2004) and is not
supported by the newer gcc (what you need to compile the app) in FC5/6.
