ngIRCd - Next Generation IRC Server

ngIRCd is free software and published under the
|
|
terms of the GNU General Public License.

-- README-Interix.txt --
|
|
|
|
|
|
ngIRCd release 15 has successfully been tested on Microsoft Windows XP
|
|
Professional using the Services for UNIX (SFU) version 3.5 and Microsoft
|
|
Windows 7 with the bundled Subsystem for UNIX Applications (SUA).
|
|
|
|
SFU are supported on Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP, and
|
|
Windows Server 2003. SUA is supported on Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows
|
|
Server 2008 & 2008 R2, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 -- so ngIRCd should be
|
|
able to run on all of these platforms.
|
|
|
|
But please note that the poll() API function is not fully implemented by
|
|
SFU/SUA and therefore can't be used by ngIRCd -- which normally would be
|
|
the default. Please see <http://www.suacommunity.com/faqs.aspx> section
|
|
4.25 for details:
|
|
|
|
"If you do try to use the poll() API your program will block on the
|
|
API call forever. You must direct your program to build using the
|
|
select() API."
|
|
|
|
So when running the ./configure script, you HAVE TO DISABLE poll() support:
|
|
|
|
./configure --without-poll
|
|
|
|
ngIRCd then defaults to using the select() API function which works fine.
