Well...when making the source, I ran into problems, and went back through my install one step at a time. The "Duh!" part I'm so good at wound up being in that I forgot to do a gmake for cyrus. But, when I tried, encountered the following problem. I googled it, and there was one response(in a language I could understand anyhow...) which suggested installing autoconf...did that to no avail. As always, any help would be appreciated! ====================================================================== [root at genie cyrus-sasl-2.1.20]# gmake gmake all-recursive gmake[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/dsbuild-static/ds/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20' Making all in include gmake[2]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/dsbuild-static/ds/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20/include' ----------------- yadda, yadda, make spam ---------------------------------- (cd .libs && rm -f libsasl2.so.2 && ln -s libsasl2.so.2.0.20 libsasl2.so.2) (cd .libs && rm -f libsasl2.so && ln -s libsasl2.so.2.0.20 libsasl2.so) ar cru .libs/libsasl2.a auxprop.o canonusr.o checkpw.o client.o common.o config.o external.o md5.o saslutil.o server.o seterror.o dlopen.o plugin_common.o ranlib .libs/libsasl2.a creating libsasl2.la (cd .libs && rm -f libsasl2.la && ln -s ../libsasl2.la libsasl2.la) if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../include -I../plugins -I../include -Wall -W -O2 -MT ../plugins/sasldb.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/../plugins/sasldb.Tpo" \ -c -o ../plugins/sasldb.o `test -f '../plugins/sasldb.c' || echo './'`../plugins/sasldb.c; \ then mv ".deps/../plugins/sasldb.Tpo" ".deps/../plugins/sasldb.Po"; \ else rm -f ".deps/../plugins/sasldb.Tpo"; exit 1; \ fi ../plugins/sasldb.c:129: fatal error: opening dependency file .deps/../plugins/sasldb.Tpo: No such file or directory compilation terminated. gmake[2]: *** [../plugins/sasldb.o] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/dsbuild-static/ds/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20/lib' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/dsbuild-static/ds/cyrus-sasl-2.1.20' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 [root at genie cyrus-sasl-2.1.20]#
