I really don't have time to debug someone else's code [...] A lot of people put a lot of time into the nntpcache code, and many of us enjoy the `damn program.' Your rather nasty tone is unwarranted, and no doubt not appreciated. At least in nntpcache-1.0.5, which is the latest I've used, in mmalloc/mrealloc.c, there is a define #ifndef HAVE_MEMMOVE # define memmove(dst,src,len) bcopy(src,dst,len) #endif It was put there because many versions ago I had to add the define for memmove() to get the mmalloc code to compile under Sunos-4.1.3, which does not have memmove(). For some reason, the HAVE_MEMMOVE define is not getting propagated to the mmalloc Makefile. You can fix it manually, or in the spirit of the nntpcache project, you could fix the Makefile configuration to work for Solaris and send your patch in for the benefit of other users. Then, you should be able to compile and link without the ucb libraries, and may find that many of your problems will go away. -- Ronald Florence Maple Lawn Farm, Stonington, CT ron@mlfarm.com http://www.connix.com/~mlfarm
