-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I had to get the pcre3 and pcre3-dev libraries (that stands for perl compatible regular expressions) from the Debian repositories with apt-get to compile it. As for being root, you do not need to be root to compile it, as long as you have it in a directory where you have write permissions. In my case I unpacked it under /usr/local/src, so of course I had to be root to compile it there. For most packages, there is a "make install" step that moves some files to places where root privileges are required, so normally you would become root in order to do "make install". But with this package, there is no "make install". You will have to copy the executable that results from a successful compile to a directory on your path, such as /usr/local/bin, and for that you will need to be root. There is a binary package that would save you the compile, but I am not sure whether the manual and sample config file comes with it since I have not used it. The following two links are to the manual in html format, and to the binary precompiled verion, called "ee" (that's double-e) HTH Chuck - -- The Moon is Waning Crescent (22% of Full) But you can still get downloads from http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFD/lwrXnuiIOyDVQURAkDKAKCCmWt2p5YwDjk0BqKX+WChuXYK7gCfXY4R dqgmUsTGjTBmWJUj7lbXsbs= =zJin -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
