+<h1>Software</h1>
+Compiling the server is supported directly on:
+<ul><li>Linux
+  <li>Solaris 2.7+
+  <li>FreeBSD
+</ul>
+<ul><li>Other modern UNIX systems should be easy to port</ul>
+
+Compiler:
+<ul><li>g++ (2.95 or 3.0-3.3)</ul>
+
+Libraries:
+<ul><li>MySQL</ul>
+
+<h1>Troubleshooting</h1>
+<h2>MySQL</h2> BOINC gets MySQL compiler and linker flags from a program
+called <code>mysql_config</code> which comes with your MySQL distribution.
+This sometimes references libraries that are not part of your base system
+installation, such as <code>-lnsl</code> or <code>-lnss_files</code>.  You may
+need to install additional packages or fiddle with Makefiles.
