I'm using a Intel Linux Machine in development, redhat 7.2 with kernel
2.4.19-pre8.
How can i strip the library ? I only made:

./configure --with-openssl=/lib --disable-thread-tracing

By default the sources are compiled without '-g', the what it means:
"the omniORB library with debugging info and thread tracing is 6057915
bytes.
 Without debugging info (but still with thread tracing), it's 2050652
bytes" ??

Thanks,
