Dear Xrootd Team, The latest release of xrootd seems to work quite well for us on Solaris after we tweaked a few things: 1. src/XrdXr/XrdXrMain.cc calls setMaxWaitTime(10) in two places. We found that changing the 10 to 120 ensured that we didn't get timeout errors. 2. src/XrdClient/GNUMakefile references perl5.8 in two places, instead of just "perl". (If you explicitly require 5.8, then I suspect that should go in the perl script, not the makefile.) 3. src/XrdClient/TestXrdClient.cc has hardwired file paths in it, and has limited utility as a result. If there was some way for this program to read the config file to find the root and then create and delete some files it could be a useful post-installation test. We also noticed that src/XrdClient/XrdClient.hh still declares the first argument to the Read() to be const void * buf. The "const" should not be there. The buffer is going to be written to by the Read method. We are able to run the master servers on RHEL 3 with this version. We can't run a dataserver until there is a workaround for the netstat problem in etc/XrdOlbMonPerf. -- Gregory J.
