Jeff, There actually two things you need to know about.
1. Some machines are only accessible via ports on other machines. This is described at https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm#Machine_Detailed_List in a paragraph which begins "Machines without public IP...". In fact, gcc60 is used as the example: it is to be reached via port 9200 on either gcc12 or gcc13. So, that explains why DNS for gcc60 sends you to gcc12. 2. There are many machines listed that are dead or retired, and gcc60 is among them. You will find gcc60 on the "Offline" list https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/CompileFarm#Offline So are all of the Sparc machines. -Paul On Sat, Jan 23, 2016 at 7:54 PM, Jeffrey Walton <noloa...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Please forgive my ignorance.... > > I noticed a login to gcc60 (IA64) redirected to gcc12 (amd64).
