The Joys Of Porting

Posted by Hemos on from the you-go-this-way-i-go-that-way dept.

Gambit Thirty-Two writes "Old news, but Sendmail has ported their MTA to Linux390." And in other news: sitz writes "It would appear as though some madman has port apache to WinCE <Insert witty beowulf comment here>. It's only been tested on a couple of platforms (including the Jornada 720, and is 'based on the WinNT port, with lots of dirty modifications'. That's still pretty swanky. I've also set up a mirror of this site, which will be up for a couple of weeks." Update: 08/27 15:19 PM GMT by H : Yes, the Sendmail story is a dupe - somebody didn't read my story before posting his. *grin*

    Yup, I already read it somewhere. If I would remember where, I would post a link to it.

    And here I've been spending countless hours porting Apache to my abacus, as I've recently decided to switch my betamax player from webserver to firewall.


    BTW: does anyone have any info on getting an abacus to use wireless ethernet? I thought linksys made an adapter, but I can't seem to find one at BestBuy...

    At work here we have the MSDN Subscription, and we have all the MS software. (but no games) 3 binders full of cd and this does not include the 2 for technet and 1 for marketing.

    One day I was browsing thru the cds and found, "SQL Server for Windows CE"
