Kir, thank you for the info. Now, is this (int *) to (char *)
assignment confined to some specific place? And is it always
(int *) to (char )? If you can orient me, I can do the code
modification myself.

As I have already mentioned before, ASPseek do not work on hardware that
doesn't support unaligned memory access. SUN servers are among them. So,
compiling ASPseek successfully do not yet means it will work.
To check your system, compile and run a simple program:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int i = 1234;
char * cp = (char *)&i;
char j = *(cp + 1);
printf("%d\n", j);
}
On my box, result is 4. It can be different on arch that has a different
byte order, but if you will receive "Bus error" or something like that,
that means ASPseek will not work on your arch.
I have managed to almost fix it (in a separate CVS branch named
aspseek_solaris), but the work is not finished. To finish it, I need
some expressed interest from somebody who wants to run ASPseek on Solaris.
