C.R.,
Sorry for the confusion. I am NOT running 2.4 on any production sites and Oracle is on a 2.2.18 kernel that has been significantly patched.
I am going to update to a 2.2.19 kernel this weekend and will update the docs on my web site to show what I did.
Again, Please don't use a 2.4 kernel on a production box. It is not quite ready for prime time.
