AIX largefile status

[Owner of News]

Just a work in progress report on getting the largefile support in INN
working with AIX. I mailed up the changes to configure the other day,
now I have the 1999-12-14 version accepting data and supporting readers.

However, cnfsstat seems broken, and I don't see any obvious thing I did
wrong in this build (but I did it in about two hours, so...) here's the
output with stuff I did.

I'm not on the list, reach me at davidsen at tmr.com if you want.
