[Gluster-users] Problems starting Gluster server

Mon Aug 25 20:57:50 UTC 2008

Steve,
 Thanks for mentioning gcc-4.3.1. There seems to be some issues with libtool
latest version than with gcc-4.3.1, as with gcc-4.3.1 things were fine. I
will get back to you regarding this.

Btw, when you say, client part crashing horribly, what exactly is happening?

Regards,
Amar
