Well, we don't encourage it, but it is possible... What do you want to run?

It is a program written in c++ by a colleague of mine doing some interpolation between points for a webmap application.
knock yourself out! Upload, chmod +x, and see if it works. Console servers are based on debian, if you find you need to recompile...
I believe the architecture is x86_64, which is also relevant. Strictly speaking you need to know the exact version of Debian to get all the potential dependencies right, but in practice if you have issues it's probably easiest just to statically link any libraries you have issues with.
ok, I'll give it a try. Thanks for the info. I hope I don't have to come back here for more help;-) Cheers
