Setting up the testbed
Installed MySQL, PHP and Apache on Leona – the new Linux machine – , but there is still some configuration to do. In the mean time, I installed the WP versions that may be needed, if update from 2,6,5 to 4.0.1 in one go doesn work.
I also dowloaded FileZilla – it seems to be the latest version on nthe site (FileZilla.org) but I cannot het it to work:

[root@Leona ~]# alias filezilla="/usr/etc/FileZilla3/bin/filezilla"
[root@Leona ~]# filezilla
/usr/etc/FileZilla3/bin/filezilla: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.15' not found (required by /usr/etc/FileZilla3/bin/filezilla)

Checked what is installed:
The libstdc++ package contains a rewritten standard compliant GCC Standard C++ Library.

That’s Ok, but the version isn’t: libstdc++-4.4.7-11.el6 (i686)

Absurd.

One of those reasons I dislike Linux….

But I should be able to use FireFox as well. But without anything (Iḿ not sure how to do it on the URL) I end up in the anonymous FTP location. Thatś fine in itself, but I need to get elsewhere, so I found an extension. It works – but cannot connect to VMS or IBM – yet.

Ok, just install the regular old-fashioned FTP-client…Found gFTP – a graphical interface. It took some experrimenta but it seemed to work – but couldn’t retrieve the filenames…
