When the postmaster is compiled on a big endian machine only monitors compiled and run on big endian a machine can talk to it. When the postmaster is compiled on a little endian machine only monitors compiled and run on little endian a machine can talk to it. Has anyone else experienced this problem ? The combinations we have tried are postmaster monitor Alpha/OSF1 3.0 Alpha/OSF1 3.0 OK Mips/Dec Ultrix 4.4 OK Sparc/SunOs 4.1.3 FAILS Sparc/SunOs 4.1.3 Sparc/SunOs 4.1.3 OK Mips/Dec Ultrix 4.4 FAILS Alpha/OSF1 3.0 FAILS When the monitor is run it simply hangs, no messages are received from the postmaster or from the monitor.
