I have Tru 64 UNIX with an Alpha processor
( the more expensive version of solaris

)

and the shoutcast prog is for solaris. will it work on my UNIX comp, or if not what can i do to get it to work?

Thanks for your time,

Not sure how many folks using Solaris hang out here.

Please be patient for a(ny) response.

Hey Vash,

Most flavors of unix have Linux emulation or Linux support. Have you checked to see if that is available on the Tru 64 flavor?

Tru64(formerly known as Digital UNIX, OSF/1) runs on Alpha processor and made by DEC(acquired by Compaq then HP).
Solaris runs on Sun Sparc and x86.

Tru64 is NOT variant of Solaris.

your only option is running linux(x86) binary on Linux/Alpha. (unless someone made linux(x86) binary emulator for Tru64)
