Default values for configuration files were probably compiled into the file that you have. Neither renaming nor relocating the file will change those default values. But, Analog allows you to specify other configuration files in the Unix shell (i.e., at the command line). The Syntax of Configuration Commands page at "http://www.analog.cx/docs/syntax.html"; covers this topic.
Root access shouldn't be needed to compile a newer version of Analog. SunOS 5.6 users who can telnet to a server and access gcc, acc, or cc can likely compile Analog. Users who are near quota can download the tarball to temp space (/tmp) and compile the binary. Essential information for compiling on Unix is on the Starting to Use Analog on Other Platforms page at "http://www.analog.cx/docs/startux.html";. -- Duke Hillard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Thanks to all who helped me wtih the Logfile format.
