Hi all,

We have a setup that allows everyone to use the same binaries, which 
makes supporting and updating software a whole lot easier.  We build 
a /linux/local on a Solaris server that gets exported to the clients 
as /usr/local, and all's well. 

My question is this:  I've never set up this kind of thing 
personally, and I'm in charge of building the /linux64/local tree on 
the Sun box, which will hold binaries for the redhat-ia64 platform.  

Right now, I'm trying to just mount /linux64/local to some random 
directory on an Itanium box, and I'm planning to just install 
everything with some flag akin to --prefix=/linux64/local.  Will this 
cause issues with /libs?  What other issues do I need to look out 
for?  Anyone done this (I'm sure) ?  How do YOU add software to YOUR 
NFS mounted /usr/local?

Thanks for the input.
