-
-ngIRCd release 15 has successfully been tested on Microsoft Windows XP
-Professional using the Services for UNIX (SFU) version 3.5 and Microsoft
-Windows 7 with the bundled Subsystem for UNIX Applications (SUA).
-
-SFU are supported on Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Server, Windows XP, and
-Windows Server 2003. SUA is supported on Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows
-Server 2008 & 2008 R2, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 -- so ngIRCd should be
-able to run on all of these platforms.
-
-But please note that two things:
-
-1. Don't use the poll() IO API
-
-The poll() API function is not fully implemented by SFU/SUA and therefore
-can't be used by ngIRCd -- which normally would be the default. Please see
-<http://www.suacommunity.com/faqs.aspx> section 4.25 for details:
-
- "If you do try to use the poll() API your program will block on the
- API call forever. You must direct your program to build using the
- select() API."
-
-So when running the ./configure script, you HAVE TO DISABLE poll() support:
-
- ./configure --without-poll
-
-ngIRCd then defaults to using the select() API function which works fine.
-
-2. Use GNU make(1)
-
-Starting with ngIRCd 18, our build system doesn't work with the default
-make(1) binary of Interix, you should use GNU make instead (tested with
-version 3.82 built from source).
