I think the other folks have answered these - let us know if there's still
issues.  If you're interested in Solaris, the PCP port to that platform is
compatible (wire protocol and on-disk format) with the Linux and all other
platforms.  I'd be keen to hear how it goes if you try out PCP on Solaris
(the Makepkgs script should work for you there too) - sometimes theres been
shared library link issues there with different paths to other platforms.

Yes, definitely.

cheers.
