Re: [Nagios-devel] Nagios 4 on Solaris 10

Post by Guest »

Ton,

I tried compiling it on my Solaris 10 (u10) x86 system and couldn't get
it to compile even with gcc. Do you have some patches that make it
compile? The issues I've run into thus far include

1. the fact that RLIMIT_NPROC does not exist and
2. 'typedef struct comment_struct' (core 3) in include/comments.h was
changed to 'typedef struct comment' in core 4 which conflicts with a
structure of the same name in /usr/include/pwd.h.
