[distcc] How to pass on Sun W.S. " LM_LICENSE_FILE" variable to secondary distcc host ?

[Yang Tj-ATY010]

Hi, there


Sun Workshop C compiler use floating licence environment.
once "LM_LICENSE_FILE=port at flexlmserver" variable got
set in .profile the cc was able to called to compile
c codes.

Giving the successful test result of distcc-1.12.1+gcc-3.3.2 on 
one pair of Sun V240s(ilad2141 and ilad2140), 
I moved on to try distcc-2.12.1+ Sun WorkShop 6 update 2 cc compiler
Sun cc combination. 

I tried adding  "--verbose" to have more clue, but still
don't know how can I pass on license variable.

Things that I have tried.

1. gmake  -j8  CC="distcc cc" LM_LICENSE_FILE="1726 at flexlmserver"
   Do I need to modified the makefile of zlib-1.1.4 ?

2. put LM_LICENSE_FILE="1726 at flexlmserver" in both root and
   distcc users' .profile. 

Following error messsage is from compiling  zlib-1.1.4.
