We also provide generic NXLog Agent packages compiled against glibc 2.5 to support RPM-based legacy distributions such as Red Hat 5.11 and SLES 11 on both 32 and 64-bit hardware.

The packages are named nxlog-6.5.9781_generic_glibc2.5_rpm_x86_64.rpm and nxlog-6.5.9781_generic_glibc2.5_rpm_i386.rpm and are also available for beta versions.
