Hi Ton<br><br>I'd love to grant you remote access to one of my servers but then I'd certainly be thrown from the 13th storey (or possibly into jail)! :D And I've studied the code a bit and I'm afraid the problem's a bit beyond me at this point; I'm not really a developer and it's been a long time since I've done any C. Mind you, if anyone out there can give me a start, narrow the scope, or make any debugging tests/suggestions I'd be happy to give it a shot and send back results or any patched code I can get to work, but I couldn't do it on my own. I haven't seen the problem in Solaris, though. The smooth experience I've been having with Solaris & Linux was what gave me the idea of pushing to use this on our AIX servers. I'd also be happy to help with any other testing on the AIX servers I have here (I've found a few other problems).
<br><br>Thanks,<br>Alex<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 7/14/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Ton Voon</b> <<a href="mailto:ton.voon@altinity.com">ton.voon@altinity.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<div><div style="">I used to work for IBM on their RS/6000 hardware, so I have a fond spot for AIX. However, I don't have any access to servers to develop on. If someone could grant me internet access to their server, I could spend some time on specific problems for the plugins.
<div><br></div><div>Alternatively, please consider running tinderbox builds on your AIX server and sending results back: <a href="http://tinderbox.altinity.org" title="http://tinderbox.altinity.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
http://tinderbox.altinity.org</a>. This will make sure the plugins continue to work on your favourite platform.</div><div><br></div><div>(Note, snapshots, and thus builds, aren't working at the moment because SF's shell servers are down.)
