Do you have Red Hat?  Which version?

You can get the latest version of Glibc-2.2 at for Red Hat at:

 ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/glibc-2.2.2-9.i386.rpm

 ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/glibc-common-2.2.2-9.i386.rpm

You need both pieces.

Before you even test for upgrading it, you need to install (DO NOT
Upgrade):

 ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2.i386.rpm

Upgrading can be an awful mess.  There will be many dependencies that
you need to satisfy, and mutual dependencies.

Doing it from the command line is not practical.  You should use GnoRPM
so that you can easily install multiple packages at once.

To avoid totally hosing your system, you will need to check your
"/etc/ld.so.conf" file.  If it has these entries, they must be in this
order:

/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/lib
/usr/i386-glibc20-linux/lib
/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib

If they are in a different order, edit it as root and then [as root]
run:

    ldconfig

Be sure to do this before rebooting.
