Thanks Ivan, but we have 3.0 and 3.1 gmond running under Cygwin (and using APR), the problem is with the 3.4 spin.

Some time ago I successfully compiled gmond 3.0.7 and 3.1.2 under Cygwin. If you need it I can upload somewhere gmond and 3rd party sources + compilation script. Also, I have gmetad 3.0.7 compiled for Windows. In additional, I developed (just for fun) my implementation of gmetad 3.1.2 using .NET and C#. P. S. I do not know whether it is possible to use these gmong versions to collect statistic from GPU. -- Best regards, Ivan. 2012/7/12 Nigel LEACH <nigel.le...@uk.bnpparibas.com>: > Thanks for the updates Peter and Bernard. > > I have been unable to get gmond 3.4 working under Cygwin, my latest errors > are parsing gm_protocol_xdr.c.
