Hmpf what have *I* done? ;-) I'm a newbie to auto* myself.

Neither do I. Anybody on this mailing list with an IRIX box?

I can promise I won't :-( But having access to Solaris 8 (Solaris 9,
too, but not from home), Debian Linux and FreeBSD both 4.10 and 5.2.1 I
can at least compile scponly on those platforms.
I would not expect you to do more than accept this for your TODO list.
Apologies for shovelling more manure on you,
