WARNING: distcc[d] performs NO AUTHENTICATION at all and should ONLY be used in trusted networks! Distccd now requires the --allow (-a) argument when running in daemon mode. This option restricts distcc to a specific network, by default this port uses 127.0.0.0/8, you should change this by specifying your own distccd_flags in /etc/rc.conf, see the script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/distccd for a template. Additionally it is recommended that you add entries to /etc/syslog.conf to record all distccd log messages to a file such as /var/log/distccd.log. Example syslog.conf entry: !distccd *.* /var/log/distccd.log The daemon runs on port 3632 by default. You can change that value by calling distccd with the -p parameter, e.g. `distccd -p 4711'. Do not edit the rc.d script to achieve this instead override the value of distccd_flags in /etc/rc.conf. Note that remote daemons currently won't work if they cannot resolve the reverse DNS of the master machine
Shown after upgrading
Those upgrading from pre-3.3 must run update-distcc-symlinks on every server machine, and add manually (see MASQUERADING of distcc(1)) those compilers it does not detect.

Cease FreeBSD port maintainerships I don't have the time to give to many of the ports I maintain at the moment. I wasn't expecting to be so busy this summer ... Please set all my ports back to ports@freebsd.org.

o Problem: "libstdc++-v3's configure script (and others) execute commands such as .../xgcc -B.../ conftest.C -c -S. Assuming that xgcc invokes the distcc client, this makes the distcc client write the assembly output to conftest.o even though it should go into conftest.s. The cause of this is that distcc currently does not honour the fact that -S supersedes -c. Interestingly, if you add "-o confte o The attached patch fixes this behaviour.
