${BINGRP})

Done:
|
|
+ Test publishing with MS-FrontPage 2000 (part of Office 2000)
|
|
Target Platform was NetBSD/alpha 1.6.1.
|
|
+ A patch adding setre[ug]id(2) in the OSF1 compatibility
|
|
module has been submitted. GNATS id port-alpha/21870.
|
|
+ Updated MESSAGE with a list of directives needed, and
|
|
required values.
|
|
|
|
To-do:
|
|
+ write a manual page on owsadm.exe. The average NetBSD
|
|
administrator shouldn't even think about using fpinstall.sh,
|
|
as it gets a number of things wrong (they are right on
|
|
OSF1/Tru64, but not on NetBSD.)

Items in need of attention:
|
|
+ Testing on non-alpha platforms (intel and sparc*)
|
|
+ ?much? sanity checking
|
|
+ test more than just owsadm.exe.
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
To operate on NetBSD/alpha 1.6.*, (and probably earlier) a small
|
|
patch needs to be applied to sys/compat/osf1/syscalls.master, to
|
|
add support for setre[ug]id(2). Fortunately, NetBSD already has
|
|
these calls, so it was easy to add support.
|
|
|
|
Additional system calls may require emulation once executables
|
|
other than owsadm.exe have been tried. [no other system calls
|
|
were needed to run shtml.exe or author.exe]
