Hi,
When I am building PERL 5.6.1 on Linux 2.6 Kernel AMD 64 bit machine [i.e.
"SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86_64) - Kernel 2.6.5-7.97-default (1)" ],
I am getting the following errors. [snip]
> [snip]lib/io_multihomed....Invalid argument at lib/io_multihomed.t line 108. Connection timed out at lib/io_multihomed.t line 94. FAILED at test 3
lib/io_sock..........Invalid argument (maybe your system does not have a localhost at all, 'localhost' or 127.0.0.1) at lib/io_sock.t line 73. accept failed: Connection timed out at lib/io_sock.t line 57. FAILED at test 2
Well, let's deal with the proffered possibility: Is it possible you don't have a 'localhost' at all?
