First of all, you need two tar-files: src.tar.Z and system.tar.Z to build
Khoros. Then here is an excerpt of the compile-FAQ:


   Q3.  I want to install KHOROS on an IBM RS/6000 workstation
        running under AIX x.x {and am getting error messages from the
        C compiler} {and would like more info} {has anybody done this}
        {are binaries available}?.

   A3.  The Khoros group at UNM cannot help you directly with compiler errors
        from the RS/6000, as they do not have an RS/6000 to test on.  However,
        binaries are available from an ftp site in Italy (thanks, Maurizio!)
        and advice from Nagarajan Ramesh has proven valuable to many:

        (1) Maurizio Davini (mau@ipifidpt.difi.unipi.it)

            Has ported Khoros 1.0 P5 to the IBM RS6000 running AIX 3.2;

            He has an official ftp site in Pisa, Italy, which includes the
            Khoros source & system distribution, plus binaries for the
            IBM RS6000 and Interactive Unix 2.2.1, available via anonymous ftp:

            address   = ipifidpt.difi.unipi.it (131.114.8.130)
                 ftp  = anonymous (ftp)
              passwd  = user@machine
            directory = /pub/khoros
            binaries  = /pub/khoros/bin/RS6000

            The khoros distribution is available also under our gopher server
            ipifidpt.difi.unipi.it port 70

        (2)
             .
             .
             .
             .

        (3) In addition, the following people have ported Khoros 1.0 P5
            to IBM RS/6000 running AIX 3.2, and have been willing to answer
            questions in the past:

            * Roque Donizete De Oliveira (oliveria@caen.engin.umich.edu)
            * Edmond Mesrobian (edmond@cs.ucla.edu)
            * Nick Kisseberth (nkissebe@delphi.beckman.uiuc.edu)


If you still get problems after that, then there is commercial grade support
available also. Send me a short mail for details.
