While compiling the seti_boinc client i get an error message like this:

System Type is AlphaDS10 running SuSE Linux 8.1 for Alpha

Any solution for this ???

On line 384 of db/xml_util.h change the second argument to min() from

5-npads

to

(long)5-npads

Could you please post the code for this ??? I´m not a programer and unsure about this.
Thanks.

That pretty much is the code. If you go to line 384 you'll see that there is no ambiguity. It's the beginning of a for loop and the call to min() should be:

std::min(eol-p,(long)5-npads)

Great! No errors with xml_util.h so far.
but now it comes up with this one:

Maybe you could help here too.
