phunni Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 I am getting my new laptop in two days and I'm very excited. As it's the first time I'll have two linux machines on a network I was thinking of using distcc - but I havea question. If a gentoo ebuild (or a make process generally) doesn;t support distcc - will using it break that compile or will it simply not be used? In other words is it safe to simply have it switched on the whole time regardless of what you are compiling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 I used a dual p3 running suse to compile gentoo on an athlon-xp in the past and didn't see any problems. So my guess is NO, you should be ok. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSe Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I also now have two machines running Linux on a network! I want use NFS to share a unified home folder for both computers as well as a unified distfiles repository of sorts. This is fun!
