Help!!!! I just got the UNIX end to the UNIX Windows program from the archives at lakesys. I uudecoded (using Dumas' uudecode) and de-arced using arc 5.21. There seemed to be no trouble. But when I transferred all the files back to UNIX to try to get the server running, I discovered that there were no directions as to what to do (no README file or anything). So I just started poking around in hopes that I'd find something that would work. I have a 4.2BSD system so I moved the "makefile_4.2" to "Makefile" and tried a "make" command. First I get an error that says that "../DEFINES" does not exist, and next I'm told that "uw_clk.h" does not exist. After poking around and manipulating the order that the makefile compiles the files, I discovered that several other header files seemed to be missing. I'm guessing that the "../DEFINES" is supposed to be a file containing compiler flags? It seems to me that either I'm missing too many files, or I have to reconstruct a lot of the server from just looking at the other files. Am I really missing some files? I got uwserver.uaa and uwserver.uab from lakesys. What am I doing wrong????????? Any help is GREATLY appreciated (I've been looking for the UNIX end to UW for a long time, and now that I get it, I can't get it to work). Thanx Mark Frost (humtech@ucschu.ucsc.edu)

Sounds pretty odd to me; the Unix uw program set that I have consists of only 4 files - two source, 1 header, and 1 doc. Compile the two source files with "cc -o outfile srcfile" - no makefile, no extra directories of stuff, etc. (uw.c, uwtool.c, uw.h, uw.1) Works just fine.
