Re: [gopher] Gopher server running on ARM?



Hello,

Since several months, the Motsognir gopher server is totally compatible with ARM, too.

Installing it is as easy as:
# make
# make install

No dependencies, no xinetd, no interpreted scripting. Runs out of the box (I am using it on a few Raspberry boxes with Raspbian myself).

  http://sourceforge.net/projects/motsognir/

cheers,
Mateusz

I would like to move my (very neglected) Gopher site to my new
server machine, which is an ARM-based plug computer.

Which server software would be suited to that? Does anyone have
experience?

I assume pygopherd (which I currently use) would work, being
Python. However, I also had an eye on mgod, for low resources
requirements and scripting capability (for some pseudo
"Web-Services"). However, I'm not a C programmer, so if it doesn't
compile I wouldn't know what to do. How likely is it that mgod or
a similar product can be adjusted so it compiles?


My headless Raspberry Model B (700Mhz, 512Mb memory) happily runs Bucktooth
written in Perl, using Xinetd. Here are some specs:

Memory:

arm=496M
gpu=16M
              total          used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:   485M       174M       311M         0B        13M       131M
Low:     485M       174M       311M
High:         0B         0B         0B
-/+ buffers/cache:        29M       456M
Swap:           0B         0B         0B

I'd recommend this setup.
