That one's fairly easy to fix.

You need to have LD_LIBRARY_PATH set correctly, or add the 
$SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/lib path to /etc/ld.so.conf file.

You may also need to "fix" the SElinux settings, depending on how your 
linux box is set up (if the SElinux settings are "strict" then shared 
libraries can only be loaded from specific directories, IIRC).
