Jeff, et al,

 Chris Korent was kind enough to answer me and sypathize that he
had the same problem with 4.2.1 and fixed it by upgradeing to AIX
4.3 and using the new compiler from IBM to get his Perl dynamic
library support compiled correctly. The dynamic library support
in Perl is apparently at the root of the problem. It will be
a few weeks until our OS gets upgraded unfortunately. In the
meantime I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with the dynamic
libraries in Perl.
 I did try to go through and get Cricket to work with RRDp, but there are
calls from Cricket (I think "create" was one of them!) that didn't work -
or weren't recognized in the RRDp files :-( Thus, using RRDp seemed like a
major undertaking if such basics didn't work. Maybe I was missing
something more simple that would allow RRDp to work with Cricket?

Thanks again...
