I procured a laptop running win2k did a little makeover on cygwin.c, using linux.c as an example due to missing files in cygwin's implementation of the proc filesystem.. cygwin's proc provides access to the registry under
/proc/registry/ information analogous to cpuinfo is in a subdirectory HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/HARDWARE/DESCRIPTION/System/CentralProcessor/ slash cpu number.. I haven't written anything to read the registry files yet I was actually thinking that direct access to the registry would make porting it to mingw easier... got gmetad to make and make install, I am seein'g issues very similar to a ganglia-users thread like not being able to write to gmetad.log and i'm getting no .rrd file's rrdtool works though (in the gmetad examples) in authd it seems like SO_PEERCRED is a linuxism? in glibc's sunrpc there is a note in the ChangeLog hadn't any luck linking against openssl enabled debug options in gmond.conf, thanks using the fake data which was already in cygwin.c I hooked it up to some linux boxes running the old ganglia-php-rrd it worked.. I don't have graphs under linux yet, But I imagine a flat line. while trying to do stuff with the configure script I ran into differences with cygwin's version of automake, I'll try and get patches here soon.. would it be wrong to assume that being in the libc under linux is why it doesn't seem to require a -l? the reason sunrpc won't compile in 1.3 from source seems to be in the #ifdef CYGWIN's root checking stuff executables supplied with the grass projects sunrpc matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
