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
