Sorry about the original message....

length: I wanted to make sure you had the whole picture
format: I keep forgetting when emailing "real" people, that the brain-dead
"Outlook" sends in "Rich Text" :-))


I applied the changes to the configure.in file -----

# AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getaddrinfo, , AC_LIBOBJ(lib/getaddrinfo))
# Tru64 UNIX has getaddrinfo() but has it renamed in libc as
# something else so we must include <netdb.h> to get the
# redefinition.
AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getaddrinfo, ,
       [AC_MSG_CHECKING([for getaddrinfo by including <netdb.h>])
       AC_TRY_LINK([#include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/socket.h>
       #include <netdb.h>],[getaddrinfo(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);],
               [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes])
               AC_DEFINE(HAVE_GETADDRINFO, 1,
                       [Define if you have the `getaddrinfo' function.])],
               [AC_MSG_RESULT([no])
               AC_LIBOBJ(lib/getaddrinfo)])])

AC_CHECK_FUNCS(getnameinfo, , AC_LIBOBJ(lib/getnameinfo))


----- however experienced the identical error as in my previous message

Paul, this message was big enough without also being in HTML!  It was
probably flagged as spam, hence the long delay.

I also see this problem, on V5.0A and V5.1 as well.

Try the patch described here:

<http://www.mail-archive.com/rsync@lists.samba.org/msg03583.html>

It appears to have been committed, if you want to try a CVS checkout.

(I haven't tried the patch or CVS myself.  My rsync-2.5.5 works because I
built it on DU-4.0D. :-)

Please do report back whether this solves the problem.  We do want
rsync-2.5.6 to build cleanly on Tru64 V5.1A!

Thanks,
David
