Hi Jeff, Pete and all, I've been called out of town and will not have time to look at the Hail stuff for a while.
Re: the endian issues, a quick look suggests that most of the code is OK and that the structs that are passed over the network need to be put into a standard endian format. There seem to be only two structs that need attention. It is less clear if there is a single place to make the byte order fix. Note: The Hail builds are not working for me. I've tried running a couple of difference distributions and they all fail in configure. Running usual upgrades does not correct the problem. Digging into the scripts a bit shows they generally fail due to library issues or what appear to be related to compiler issues (test... ac_nonexistent.h). If there is interest, I can forward the log files. - Rick >>> Speaking of chunkd... >>> >>> I don't think I will have time this week to fix chunkd's failure on big >>> endian machines.
