I have 2 accounts here, one on a SparcStation (fast enough), and one on a Sun-3 (terribly slow). The Sparc is where I do almost all of my stuff, but the class I'm in now (Ada) requires the use of the Sun-3, because for some reason, they coulnd't find a cheap Ada compiler for a 4. Anyway, when more than one person gets on there, the response time is unberably slow. What I'd like to do is to be able to edit the source on the Sparc, and have it do it's 3 minute compilation on the Sun-3. So, I thought, "well, I'll just change my Makefile to this:" ban: ban.tof rsh ucpsc adalib link ban ban.tof: ban.ada rsh ucpsc tada -Op0 ada/ban.ada where ucpsc is the remote Sun-3. This does call the compiler correctly, except the sourcefile that it's looking for is still on the Sun-3. (I slap myself on the head for not thinking this at first) Any suggestions? -- Matt Ranney "There are a few occasions where you do t22918@ursa.calvin.edu need to use a 'GOTO'... but... well mranney@wybbs.mi.org you didn't just hear me say that." mranney@mole.ai.mit.edu (or any other FSF machine) -Dr. Joel Adams
