Hi, I tried this and it could check out. Thanks. But, I found two problems. Problem 1) After checking out thru CVS, I DID NOT find the configure file. How then I build SASL? Here is a snapshot of the files checked out. ********************************************** AUTHORS Makefile.am README.ldapdb configure.in java pwcheck sasldb COPYING NEWS README.rpm contrib lib sample utils CVS NTMakefile SMakefile dlcompat-20010505 mac samples win32 ChangeLog README cmulocal doc man sasl INSTALL.TXT README.andrew config include plugins saslauthd ************************************************** Could somebody pls check, is/(why is) CVS checkout any different from a ftp or a http checkout of SASL? Problem 2) Again, whenever I am trying to checkout cyrus-sasl-2.1.22.tar.gz file thru ftp or http, I see that the file size is 1609278 bytes. After downloading this, I see the same number of bytes downloaded. I gunzip it successfully but upon running tar -xvf on the tar file, it gives a tar: directory checksum error. The sizes of the tar.zip file and of the tar file are: -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 8069120 Dec 15 11:31 cyrus-sasl-2.1.22.tar -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 1609278 Dec 15 11:33 cyrus-sasl-2.1.22.tar.gz When, I try the same process (ftp ot http ) on version 2.2.21. It downloads the tar.gz file successfully and tar -xvf on the tar is also successful. The problem is happening only with version 2.1.22. Did anybody face it ?
