Hello,

This list may be a fruitful place to ask this question.

For the purposes of writing and verifying Linux man pages, I sometimes
want to run test programs on other Unix systems in order to verify
portability details.  I currently have access to some versions of
FreeBSD, and also, thanks to www.testdrive.hp.com, HP-UX.  I also have
private access to Solaris 8.  However, I'd very much like to get
access to other systems -- especially Solaris 9 and/or 10, but other
Unixes are also of interest.

Ideally what I'd be looking for is ssh access to said systems, so that
I can login and run the tests myself.  (If I need to do things such as
ask someone else to run them, then that slows my workflow down, and
also disinclines me from running too many tests, since I don't want to
be in the position of bothering people each time I have a new test.)

All of the tests I'm thinking of are the ones that would require at
most a few seconds of CPU time (no stress tests), and most would be
runnable under non-privileged accounts.  (For the rare occasions when
I wanted to run a test that required superuser privs, which I realize
I'm unlikely to get, then I wouldn't mind having to pester someone to
run the test for me, if there is anyone willing to oblige.)

Can anyone help out?

Cheers,

Michael
