Hi all, The announcement for 2.17 mentioned the addition of timeouts on network operations. This sounds like a very interesting feature. To say the truth, this was the only feature that was still missing before I could propose distcc as replacement at my job's place for our homemade, bogus distributed compilation system. I just gave a try and it seems to work very well :) Congratulations!
I would, however, have questions. I couldn't find any information about this in the man page of distccd. Did I miss something, or is it really not there? My questions: What is the default timeout? How frequently are hosts retried after a timeout (by default)? After a connection failure (by default)? Is there a way to control these values? (I may submit a patch for the manual page if told how the feature works and/or where in the code to look at.) Thanks. -- Jean "Khali" Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/ __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
