*Emails a bottle of champaign to Giles* Thx man, I checked your configure command and used the following and it worked. ./configure --enable-mysql --with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib64<div id="mb_2">/mysql --disable-pgsql CFLAGS="-fPIC" I am compiling for MySQL support only with this command. Thx again!!!!

Thanks Craig I have not compiled or used ndoutils in the past, but I do have a x64 platform and I tried to compile it just now. I get the exact same error on a Gentoo x64 system. Try: ./configure --build=i386 --host=i386 --libdir=/usr/lib32 CFLAGS="-fPIC" Then "make" and you go. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
