Good! You are the first one to do this, I guess. Another platfrom 
QuickFIX is running on.

I guess AIX 5 will be quite Linux compatible. Which AIX version to do 
intend to use?

There is no required procedure; just try to build QuickFIX the standard 
and fix all problems you get on. Do you have experience working on AIX? 
Otherwise I could assist you a bit, and the other guys on the list will 
do so if they have any ideas.

Just give it a try and get help from the list.

Cheers, Jörg
