You almost certainly need to use GNU make 2. Starting with dsbuild is probably not the best way to do this 3. While there is Apache for win32 the FDS modules haven't been tested at all under Windows and I suspect won't even compile. Historically what we've done internally is to prebuild the components (NSPR, NSS, SASL, SNMP, etc) and put that into a "components" area so we don't have to build the entire world all the time. That is probably a better starting point. The trick is to get the binaries put into the proper directory structure. I believe there is an argument you need to pass to gmake for it to use "internal" components. The file components.mk would be a good place to start. I'd use the Building page on the FDS wiki as a starting point for building. IIRC we used the MKS tools (except for make). How you can get past the missing admin server I don't know. FDS doesn't really need an admin server to run. You may even be able to use one admin server to manage multiple FDS servers but I'm a little fuzzy on that. rob -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
