Full Version: How to determine 32 or 64 bit RHEL 4
The Planet Forums > System Administration > HOWTOs

We are running a Intel \ 2.0 GHz 1333FSB - Woodcrest \ Xeon 5130 (Dual Core) server with RHEL 4. We were wondering how to determine if we are running in a 32 or 64 bit mode so we know whether to compile apps for 32 or 64 bit.

Thank you.

Try uname -a

It should return a line that ends in either:

x86_64 GNU/Linux (64 bit) or
i386 GNU/Linux (32 bit)
