Re: Irix 5.3 or 6.2

Hi Scott,

We have been using squid in various incarnations on 5.2, 6.2 and more
recently 6.5 boxes. The proxys we have running at the moment are not a
patch on what you have but have never caused any major problems.

Use the C compiler supplied with the SGI in preference to the gcc or
what ever it is called now. We had problems with the netmask - complains
about not being able to reach machines with IP Addresses 0.0.0.0.
Apparently a problem with the gcc implementation on SGI. The only
problem is that the C compiler costs money usually - maybe the GNU C
compiler works better now - let me know how you get on.

Otherwise no problem.

Just do it!

Has anyone on this list used Squid with Irix 5.3 (which I currently
have)
or Irix 6.2 (I'm going to have)?

I have a couple of Challenge L boxes that have been donated and I'm
trying
to find something useful for one of these boxes to do...

quad R4400 @ 150
1gb ram
4gb FWD disks...

Any thoughts?
