Hi Sai,

Which version of the PCP sources do you have?  (what does the
VERSION.pcp file contain?).

The PCP port to AIX was done some time ago, and since few of us have
access to AIX machines, its quite likely to have atrophied over time.
I can help you to get it to work again though.

Also, getting this working quickly would be helped by:
- access to an AIX machine (do you/someone have one on the Internet
somewhere that I could get ssh access to?)  It would need compilers
and other development tools installed, of course.
- quicker communication than email - if you are familiar with IRC,
there is a PCP development channel on the OFTC network where several
PCP developers are available to talk to directly - feel free to join
us there - channel is #pcp on irc.oftc.net (see http://www.oftc.net).

cheers.
