I am reading over the info on distcc so that I might be able to setup an

I only want the Opteron to help the P4, not the other way around, the
Opteron does not need the help.

Is that configurable as such?

Yes, but you need to set up a cross-compiler on the Opteron. Or can the 64bit compiler generate 32bit code? Not too sure here.

I just read a short time ago about the cross compiler.
From my reading it only needs to be installed on the machine starting the process and using resources of another.

Since I want the P4 to use the Opteron then the P4 needs the cross compiler in place. I do not intend the Opteron to use the P4 for help, so it is not needed and I just tell distcc to use the local machine.

I have the Opteron system setup, still need to setup the P4.
