May be a new build could solve this issue.


Hello David & List....

Just to let you know, I've started digging into it. Got the latest version of it (4.3), and have it compiled, but not working yet. In order to even build it, I had to update Automake, Autoconf, and M4. Also, without alot of source hacking, its needs to be built under GCC 4, maybe even 3.

Right now I am testing a Cross Compiled version in AranyM, and seem to have file issues right now which I'm sorting out. Mainly read and write issues I think. Crond seems to run, but time seems to be off, and crontab itself seems to have file i/o issues right now.

I'll try to keep chuggin on it.

I hope you used my autoconf/automake packages... I spent a lot of time upgrading them. http://storage.atari-source.org:8000/atari/personal/package_staging/
