Hey Justin, thanks for your reply. 

Arch:  RHEL5  x86_64

Media: since i made this post I actually received the latest copies of 
Netbackup for linux 64 bit in the mail from Symantec. (kind of spooky cause i 
wasnt expecting them at all). 

Anyways, this is what i see when i try the method you suggested:

[netbackupics#]$ /usr/bin/perl installics
installics: line 34: ./perl/bin/perl: cannot execute binary file
installics: line 35: ./perl/bin/perl: cannot execute binary file
installics: line 38: /netbackupics/perl/bin/perl: cannot execute binary file
installics: line 38: /netbackupics/perl/bin/perl: Success

I took that a step further and looked at the installics script itself and there 
is a line there that if it cant find the perl directory in the ICS folder to 
use /usr/bin/perl. I remember the perl directory after copying the cd to the 
drive. 

i actually get this:

[netbackupics#]$ ./installics

If you want to install, configure or manage another application, type Y to 
continue...




So i think im going to open up a support ticket. I installed the 32bit version 
easy as pie on another box, unfortunetly I only have the 1 64bit red hat 
machine. Any thoughts Justin?
