Jon Trulson 591e58fe1a linux.cf: add libtirpc support. Disabled by default. ... Currently on Linux, you must run rpcbind in insecure mode (-i) in order for ttsession to register with rpcbind (the portmapper). This is because, on most systems, libc contains an older sun-based rpc library embedded within it. The sun-rpc code does not know how to authenticate with rpcbind when run as a non-privileged user. Using libtirpc, ttsession can register with rpcbind without requiring it to be run in insecure mode. You must have the libtirpc-dev, or equivalent package installed to use it. If you want to try this: - install libtirpc-dev or equivalent - if your rpcbind process is already running in insecure mode (-i option), remove that option and restart it. - edit config/host.def, (create if it doesn't exist) and add: #define HasTIRPCLib YES - rebuild CDE (make World). It's probably a good idea to remove /usr/dt/* beforehand to avoid contamination. Some linux systems seem to incorporate tirpc directly into libc (as all of the BSD's do AFAIK) so this may not be needed. I know that at least on Ubuntu systems defining HasTIRPCLib to YES is required in order to run rpcbind without -i.		2012-09-03 19:50:10 -06:00
