Korty) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: rdist Date: 1 Sep 1996 03:17:37 GMT Organization: Physics Department, Purdue University Lines: 14 Message-ID: <50av8h$s8l@mozo.cc.purdue.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: schwinger.physics.purdue.edu In trying to make our newly-installed FreeBSD machine work with our source-distribution system, I've run into the familiar error from rdist about a version mismatch. After weeding out all conceivable causes of this and still getting the error, I've decided that, for once, the error is correct and they really are using different versions of the protocol. My question is, where can I get source to the old rdist that will compile under FreeBSD. (I would just try to compile FreeBSD's rdist for our other machines, but that would get really ugly for some of them.) Thanks ... ajk
