Builds of Hobbit client for ancient operatingsystems?

The default compiler on HPUX is pretty much only good for recompiling the kernel (I ran into it in the past).  You might want to go to http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/ (kinda like sunfreeware for hpux) to see if they still have any packages to save yourself a compile.

I did get gmake installed on the hpux 10.20 box - it compiled OK, but as
I see in the docs, other people have noticed that the Hobbit client does
not like the default C compiler on hp/ux.  I'll have to see if I can get
a copy of the ANSI C compiler.

I also got the client compiled for Solaris 6.  Thanks to everyone for
the tips.

Does sunfreeware.com still have gcc for solaris 6? A quick
check confirms it. I'm sure someone else on the list could
help with HPUX.

Hi All,

I'm new to the list.

I've been asked to see if there's any way to get the hobbit
client on
some of our... more elderly systems, such as HP-UX 10.10,

10.20, 11.00,

and Solaris 6.  None of these systems have gcc on them as
far as I know,
and installing gcc on systems that old is a major challenge
just due to
available disk space if nothing else (such as dependencies), so
compiling copies myself would be a big undertaking.

Does anyone maybe know of some dusty, forgotten corner of
the net where
Hobbit clients for those operating systems might be
available?  Or have
one of those systems runing with gcc and be willing to
compile a couple
clients for me?

Thanks,

Doug
