Greetings! I've been attempting to build rrn and nntp for an Apollo 3000 and I've been running in problems. Does anyone has this available or know of where I can get the needed files for version 9 & 10 of the OS. I have completed installation of rrn and nntp for both the Sun and Iris platform. I would also like to have rrn and nntp available for our Apollo users. We are running C-News on a Sun server. Thanks in advance!

I used a vanilla rrn/nntp version, but I had to use a few tricks to make them compile: We got both rrn and nntp running on our net, so it should not be to difficult. I used a vanilla rrn/nntp version, but I had to use a few tricks to make them compile: 1.) switch to the berkeley universe 2.) compile the nntp stuff, there should not be any problems (at least, I cannot remember them) 3.) Compiling the rrn is abit tricky, because larry's Configure script tries to search the C library to look which functions exist. The bsd variety of DomainOS however does not any. The sys5 version however does have one, which serves as glue between the bsd and sys5 calls. I just specified the sys5 libc.a and it compiled fine. bye, mike ____ ____ / / / / / Michael K.
