old server crashed
Hello
We had an old system designed in fortran that ran on a IBM RS6000 AIX 3.2 system. The person who designed is long gone. It was replaced with a completely different (non unix) system 6 years ago. We still used it for historical lookups of older information. Well yesterday it died. The hard drive just sounds like its clicking and not spinning. We have some backup tapes of the system from a few years ago but I dont know if they will do me any good. Is there anyway I could recover any of this information? We dont have any of the aix installation disks, just the dead machine, and some backup tapes. Are we out of luck or is there hope?
Bill

binfmtf(1) binfmt_C binfmtf(1)
NAME
binfmtf-interpreter - binfmt_misc fortran handler
SYNOPSIS
binfmtf-interpreter fortran-source-file-name [command-line opions ...]
DESCRIPTION
binfmtf-interpreter compiles a fortran source file specified on the command-line using the g77 compiler, and executes the resulting file.
It is designed to be used as a handler for binfmt_misc handler, which is a system used in Linux for handling arbitrary files as executa-
bles.
The command-line options are passed on to the compiled binary.
FILE MAGIC
There is a requirement for Fortran source files to have the magic characters c BINFMTF: at the beginning of the file.
That line also is used to specify the additional command-line options for Fortran compiler.
ENVIRONMENT
G77 The compiler used. The default is to use g77
BINFMTCTMPDIR
Temporary directory used for binary and execution.
Falls back to $TMPDIR $TEMPDIR or /tmp
BINFMTC_DEBUG
enables debug output if set.
BINFMTC_G77_OPTS
Additional G77 options. Use BINFMTC_DEBUG to verify the options being passed on to g77.
The default is -O2 -Wall
