I obtained perl 3.0 from the uunet archive as described in the recently posted FAQ. It came with patch1. The Configure script ran without any apparent problem as did the make depend. When I run make, I eventually get... cc -c -O doio.c "doio.c", line 1587: pw_change undefined "doio.c", line 1599: pw_class undefined "doio.c", line 1611: pw_expire undefined *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `doio.o' Can anyone tell me what has gone wrong? Thanks, Milt Milt Ratcliff PE-Nelson milt@pe-nelson.com

From the keyboard of milt@mem.pe-nelson.com (Milt Ratcliff): :I obtained perl 3.0 from the uunet archive as described in the recently :posted FAQ. It came with patch1. Don't you mean perl 4.0? Did you uucp or ftp? If ftp, you can look around a bit to make sure you've grabbed perl4, not perl3. :The Configure script ran without any apparent problem as did the make depend. :When I run make, I eventually get... : :cc -c -O doio.c :"doio.c", line 1587: pw_change undefined :"doio.c", line 1599: pw_class undefined :"doio.c", line 1611: pw_expire undefined :*** Error code 1 :make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `doio.o' : :Can anyone tell me what has gone wrong? It looks like Configure thinks it has more fields in struct passwd than your system actually knows about. Could you please tell us what system you're using? Hardware and O/S and pertinent versions thereof are essential. --tom -- Tom Christiansen tchrist@convex.com convex!tchrist "Perl is to sed as C is to assembly language." -me
