Hi All,

I've been working on installing the xymon client onto a solaris 10 systems and have encountered some errors. I'd appreciate any assistance the list could provide. 

When I run sudo configure.client I see:

Checking for Large File Support ...
ERROR: LFS support check failed for standard file support


Checking for clock_gettime() requiring librt ...
clock_gettime() requires librt

Thanks,

Mike

Have you the prerequisites? 

rrdtool-1.2.19-sol10-sparc-local.gz
libart_lgpl-2.3.19-sol10-sparc-local.gz
zlib-1.2.5.sol10-sparc-local.tar.gz
libpng-1.2.44-sol10-sparc-local.gz
freetype-2.4.2-sol10-sparc-local.gz
gcc-3.4.6-sol10-sparc-local
pcre-8.12-sol10-sparc-local.gz
libiconv-1.13.1-sol10-sparc-local.gz

You probably need to adjust your path accordingly
I also use gnu make because it is easier. (instead of /usr/ccs/bin/make)
A trick for the client is to rename /usr/ccs/bin/ld so compiling uses /usr/local/bin/ld instead.
It is hard corded somewhere in the prereq packages.
Can't remember if the gnu tools where needed for the client.
All packages found at www.sunfreeware.com

There is a few other gotchas with the server.

Greetings, 
Thanks for the response. Are rrdtool, pcre, and zlib required for client builds? I have the other items installed. 
Thanks again for your assistance.

The binaries don't use these libraries.  Not sure about the Makefile
requiring them though, but probably not.

Cheers
