man ld.so
hmmm, man ld.so seems to have fallen off my sortof Mandrake 7.2 man
pages. As a software developer, you are meant to know how to work
shared libraries.
I've answered this approximate question about 8192 times in this list
alone, and 16384 in linux-newbie, so list archives ought to help.
Put the directory path to libntdll.so (_not the filename_) in
/etc/ld.so.conf and have root run /sbin/ldconfig, or put it in the
environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
