As far as I know, the MS Windows support requires the SFU (or whatever it's called), so Windows 95 is a non-starter. > or Solaris 2.6 to have support (officially) as they are all ancient > systems with (I hope) few people still using them. RHEL 3 is just out of support, but Solaris 2.6 is really ancient now. (I wonder why people would want the latest and greatest GE on them, when the hardware is presumably pretty old.) > It's less clear for something like RHEL4, > Windows XP, or Solaris 9 which are all getting old, but still in wide > use. Both those are still supported OSes, and I don't see why either would be an issue, other than having the relevant JDK available for the Java bits. I don't have it on an RHEL 4 system, but I built the rest OK on it from my SGE repo. Otherwise I'd be surprised if major portability problems arise with relatively recent POSIX-ish systems, but it typically requires assistance from people with an interest in the non-mainstream platforms to get things fixed but providing information on the system. I assume if people supply clean patches, they'll just be applied. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] https://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/users
