I will do it later, no 5.3 tree at hand and low bandwidth here :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-01-03 16:32:04] gk at gknw dot de Description: ------------ On NetWare platform php_uname('n') returns a hardcoded string 'NLM' which is pretty much useless. This is due to the fact that Novell NetWare pupulates the utsname struct different from other Posix platfoms. Nevertheless they have added a bunch of other useful members which return the correct hostname as well as more accurate version infos. Here's a unified diff against ./ext/standard/info.c which corrects php_uname() for NetWare, and also adds some more useful information: http://www.gknw.net/test/php_issues/info.c.diff to verify this proposed patch here's a test script running on PHP 5.2.0 unpatched (NetWare 6.50 SP 6): http://www.gknw.net/tstphp/phpuname.php and here's running PHP 5.2.0 patched (NetWare 5.10 SP 8): http://www.mailkastl.at/tstphp/phpuname.php as you can see I get here the hostname of the machine, and in addition the NetWare version + SP level, and the libc version too. Would be great if this patch gets applied. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40013&edit=1
