This is RHEL 3.0 ES on Compaq AMD 64 bit. I am trying to install a certain number of packages which all give me dependencies errors, on libc.so.6.1 and libm.so.6.1. Here is a screen shot:

[root at localhost root]# rpm -i compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128.ia64.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        libc.so.6.1()(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128
        libc.so.6.1(GLIBC_2.2)(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128        libc.so.6.1(GLIBC_2.2.4)(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128
        libc.so.6.1(GLIBC_2.3)(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128        libgcc_s.so.1(GLIBC_2.0)(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128
        libm.so.6.1()(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128
        libm.so.6.1(GLIBC_2.2)(64bit) is needed by compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.128

I downloaded the RPM from the web, and it seems it is one for Itanium (ia64.rpm) , although the download page said it is for AMD. Is this my problem? If yes, where to find the RPM for AMD64? If not, how to get the libc.so.6.1, and libm.so.6.1 and  how to install these lib?
Thanks in advance.
