How to know whether a Netprobe binary is 32-bit or 64-bit?

To quickly identify a Netprobe binary’s bit version, examine its filename. A “_64” suffix generally indicates a 64-bit version (e.g., netprobe.linux_64). If the “_64” suffix is absent, the binary is likely 32-bit (e.g., netprobe.linux). This naming convention helps distinguish between 32-bit and 64-bit executables for various operating systems like Linux, Sun, and AIX.
