- To make NNTP run on Silicon Graphics IRIX, do the following:
-
- 1. Edit conf.h. If you are running IRIX 4, make sure you define USG and look
- at all the other stuff in there to be sure you have defined all the other
- things you need. (You will most likely need to define vfork. You will most
- likely need to undefine FASTFORK, and BSD_42. IRIX 5 will set all the correct
- values by default.
-
- 3. Edit the Makefile in the root directory of the nntp sources. For IRIX 4.X,
- make sure to add -lbsd to the LIBS line. Be sure to modify the CFLAGS lines
- to add -I/usr/include/bsd. For IRIX 5, add -lmld to the LIBS line.
-
- 4. Now, you can cd to the root directory of the nntp sources and type
- "make server" to make the server programs.
-
- 5. You will need to modifiy the /usr/etc/inetd.conf file to add the nntpd
- service.
-
- If you have problems, send mail to nntp@academ.com and he will help if he
- can.
