You guys are awesome. Thanks for taking time from your schedule to help me, I appreciate it very much. Like I said Unix is new to me. I picked up a copy of slackware 5mo. ago just to see what this UNIX stuff was all about. I dont know why but for some reason The Dark Side just sucked me in. I bought a copy of Unix In A Nutshell 3RD edition but sometimes when you just dont understand what to look for you need to ask somebody for answers. I know some of my questions are stupid and elementary and I ask that you please forgive my ignorance on the subject and have patience as I try to grow.
find / -name libc.so.26.2 -print ---> returns nothing.
ln -s `locate libc.so.26.2` /usr/lib/libc.so.26.2 ----> returns nothing
I can find other files just fine so i know the find command is working. The files appears to not be there, but why would a snapshot not contain a critical file needed by the system seeing how a snapshot is just a recompiled version of the general release with errata applied? How to I get this file and apply it or do i have to format and start over with a different build?

matrix.conf
matrix.conf(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual matrix.conf(4)
NAME
matrix.conf - SIA (Security Integration Architecture) configuration file
DESCRIPTION
The matrix.conf file provides the means to configure the SIA security mechanisms for security sensitive commands. Each security mechanism
provider should either use the siacfg command to update the matrix.conf file or provide a new matrix.conf file to support their security
product.
The operating system is provided with a default BSDmatrix.conf file. When the sysman secconfig utility is run to enable enhanced security,
the operating system modifies the matrix.conf file to use the enhanced security mechanism. See the EXAMPLES section for samples of the
default files.
The commands affected by the SIA mechanism and matrix.conf file include:
rshd
ftpd
chfn
chsh
su
login
passwd
The Security manual contains a detailed description of the SIA programming interface and as well as a description of the administration of
the associated /etc/sia/matrix.conf files.
EXAMPLES
The following is the default BSD (Base) security mechanism /etc/sia/matrix.conf file:
