This is the output of the "strings"command on the "old" machine

moder8 at old-massis:~/rsi$ strings /home/moder8/bin/entities <I125
/lib/ld-linux.so.2
__gmon_start__
libc.so.6
_IO_stdin_used
exit
putchar
stdin
fgets
stdout
fputs
strncasecmp
fwrite
__libc_start_main

Now, the output of the "files" command on the old machine

/home/moder8/bin/entities: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386,\
version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs),\
 for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, not stripped

Now, the output of the "strings" commond on the "new" machine

/lib/ld-linux.so.2
__gmon_start__
libc.so.6
_IO_stdin_used
exit
putchar
stdin
fgets
stdout
fputs
strncasecmp
fwrite
__libc_start_main
GLIBC_2.0

And, last, the output of the "file" command on the new machine:

/home/moder8/bin/entities: ELF 32-bit LSB  executable, Intel 80386,\
version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs),\
 for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, not stripped
