I can't comment on the binary distributions (don't use them), but if you
downloaded http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/db/db-1.85.4-src.tar.gz
then you'll have to follow the installation instructions (usually in the
README or INSTALL file).
If you do insist on using a binary distribution, then the file you are
looking for is:
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/db/db-1.85.4-bin-ELF.tar.gz
The contents of which looks like:
usr/
usr/lib/
usr/lib/libdb.a
usr/lib/libdb.so.1.85.4
usr/lib/libdb.so.1
usr/lib/libdb.so
usr/include/
usr/include/mpool.h
usr/include/db.h
Stick it in your / directory and untar it, then run "ldconfig -v". Make
sure you don't have other versions of libdb.so.1 kicking around in other
lib directories (e.g. /lib, /usr/local/lib). "ldconfig -v" will tell you
what you have got installed.
It's probably compiled against libc5 which means that it probably won't
work out of the box on RedHat 5.2. If this is the case, get the source
from:
http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/db/db-1.85.4-src.tar.gz

What did you spend $350 on?

ROTFL!

Think "No, that's a dodgy hack and it's not going to work."
