I'd like to extend > it to cover Solaris, AIX and HP-UX. there are so many reasons why this is wrong (some of which people have pointed out). you havent really said why you want this information, but presumably it isnt for usage in the configure script (since that's about the only place this info would be valid). if it's being passed to source code, you should be querying the proc count at runtime with sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF). if your system isnt POSIX complaint, then usually it provides some other way of getting this info. -mike
