Hi Albert,
Thanks for the quick reply. Configure was run successfully, just curious for the output, because I ran it on Ultra-2 which is running 64-bit, even the output from configure saying 64, but why the next line "checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no" say no, configure: loading cache /dev/null configure: Configuring rsync 2.5.2 checking build system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.7 checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.7 checking target system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.7 checking for gcc... no checking for cc... cc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes .. checking for remsh... 1 checking for broken largefile support... no checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... 64 checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no .. Does it mean that it doesn't support largefile?

I just built 2.5.2 with CFLAGS=-xarch=v9 and get: > .. > checking for broken largefile support... no > checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no > checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... no > checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no > > This is to be expected as -xarch=v9 enables 64-bit mode which defaults > to supporting large files (because we're using 64-bit integral types). > > -- > albert chin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) > -- Jennifer
