Hi, I have had distcc recommended to me by a few people, and I decided to give it a go.
All the machines I trying to run it on are FreeBSD-5.4-p1, except for one dual Xeon where it is running under Cygwin. I have the back end distccd process running fine and listening on tcp4 and tcp6 via inetd. Problems come when I try and actually compile. If I run "distcc --version" I get the response I expect, but if I try and use the links I created as per the masquerading instructions in the distcc man page I can't get it working. Even if I reference the links I have created with absolute paths (i.e. '/usr/local/lib/distcc/bin/cc --version' gives the normal gcc output), so I realised that it was something else. After some hunting around I found this: "It is possible to get a "recursion error" in masquerade mode, which means that distcc is somehow finding itself again, not the real compiler."; but I am not sure how this helps me. I have tried fiddling with my path order, but this didn't seem to change anything. I'm not sure where to go next. here is my Masquerade directory: baal# pwd /usr/local/lib/distcc/bin baal# ll total 0 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 May 30 18:50 c++ -> /usr/local/bin/distcc lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 May 30 18:50 cc -> /usr/local/bin/distcc lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 May 30 18:50 g++ -> /usr/local/bin/distcc lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 21 May 30 18:50 gcc -> /usr/local/bin/distcc Here is my path statement: /sbin /bin /usr/local/lib/distcc/bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin /root/bin baal# uname -a FreeBSD baal.rockdale.nsw.cw.net.au. 5.4-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p1 #0: Thu May 19 09:54:08 EST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/LEBOWSKI i386 Is there something I am missing? Or is there a different way of doing it under FreeBSD? __ distcc mailing list http://distcc.samba.org/ To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/distcc
