* All Linux distributions must be running glibc-2.1.3-11 or later, gcc/egcs libstdc++ 2.9, and 2.2 kernel or later. For performance reasons, the ColdFusion team recommends performing a Linux Server or Custom install of Red Hat 6.x rather than KDE or GNOME installation. ClusterCATS and Application Management features are not supported on this platform. ColdFusion Server provides a precompiled module that is binary compatible with versions 1.3.6 through 1.3.19. ColdFusion Server also provides the files required to build a version of the ColdFusion plug-in module for a custom version of Apache 1.3.x. For more information, see "Configuring Web servers manually".
