cfexecd 2.1.14 keep on crashing on solaris 8

[Francois Vanderpoorte]

Hi,


i am trying to implement cfengine 2.1.14 in banksys, we have one hundred
systems

of different unix flavours to admin so it will be very interresting for us

I did not experienced any problems with tru64 and linux but i really get big
problems to run

cfexecd on solaris boxes, it crashes as soon as it tries to launch cfagent.

cfengine has been compiled with this gcc :

/opt>/usr/local/bin/gcc -v

Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.3.2/specs

Configured with:
../configure --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --disable-n
ls

Thread model: posix

gcc version 3.3.2





what am i doing wrong ??? do i need some special flags or libraries ?? (i
also tried with

CFLAGS="-g -O2 -mv8" as specified in the README file but with no positive
impact )




this is a truss log of what cfexecd is doing ..
