Deadline install on osX

Hi,

I have installed Deadline on a mac (MBP os 10.5.4, x11, mono 2.4.3)
It launches DeadlineLauncher, DeadlineSlave ok, But it quits on me when I try to enter a username in DeadlineMonitor!?!
(Have to say I am not to clued up on the technical side of this…)

Giving me this in shell:

** (/Applications/Deadline/Resources/bin/DeadlineMonitor.exe:1902): WARNING **: System.Net.Sockets.SocketOptionName 0x1b is not supported at IPv6 level

** (/Applications/Deadline/Resources/bin/DeadlineMonitor.exe:1902): WARNING **: System.Net.Sockets.SocketOptionName 0x1b is not supported at IPv6 level

Any ideas?

/p

It looks like there is a bug in Mono 2.4.x’s implementation of the MessageBox control. I should note that Deadline 3.1 has only been tested against Mono 2.2, so try installing that version instead:
ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/archive/2.2/download/

Deadline 4.0, which will be released in January, will work with Mono 2.4.x, since we’re using our own custom message boxes.
