DR> Do you know more about development of Maximus on Linux?

 BJ> Not much going on.  I have access to the sourceforge archive as

 BJ> last "short term" contract, I have held off any participation on

argh! that's long enough time to have a child and get wrapped up in other
duties :(  i still can't get what i've got to compile as it did on that old
box... i'll probably end up pulling it over to a kubuntu box and seeing
what'll happen... that's gonna be a fun mess to dig in :(

 BJ> The contract ran significantly longer than originally expected.  
 BJ> Future contracts will be modified in this area.

i hear that... i've flat refused jobs that have tried to do similar and
have walked off others when they have brought them forth... i don't work on
commission, either O:)

 DR> Sourceforge isn't updated since long time.

 DR> btw, without much digging:
 DR> Where is this compatibility lib needed to compile the 
 DR> source with recent compilers?

 BJ> What problems are you having with compiling?  The current code in
 BJ> source forge was compiling and running under the standard Debian
 BJ> 3.0 release, and I think I have since recompiled under the standard
 BJ> Debian 3.1 release. 

i actually had a working debian (latest) box working for a few weeks... i
didn't ever really have much time to dig in and finally got to the point
that i simply made it into a firewall in preparation for getting DSL
service as well as to see if some effects being seen were attacks or
problems in the server... FWIW, it looks like they are problems in the
server :(
