[gentoo-user] Question about distcc

2003-09-29 Thread Ian Truelsen
Here is the setup that I have:

Desktop: Athlon 1700 XP
Server: 400 MHz Celeron
Firewall: Pentium 200MMX

The main reason that I set up distcc is to try to speed the compilation
on the Firewall box. I also have the Server use the Desktop to help its
compile speed.

What I was wondering was: would there be any gain, or loss, by having
the Desktop send requests through to either of the other machines? Would
it cause a bottleneck on the faster machine?

If you list localhost first, it shouldn't slow it down. I found this out last 
week with 2 laptops (mine gentoo: celery 650, work winxp: p4m 1.8). The work 
laptop was sending all the work off to my laptop, as it was listed first.

Hmm, a compiler on a firewall. Isn't this considered a security problem?

Bye...
