Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In the Makefile for Eagle BBS there is a section called "special libs". It says that if you are using Freebsd you need to add -lipc to the end as well as -lcrypt and -lcompat. When I tried to compile it gave me an error saying: /usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lipc I then went into the make file and removed it and attempted to compile again and it worked fine. After getting the BBS going I noticed that all the connections to it were reported as comming from local host. Does this have anything to do with -lipc? What is -lipc and how should I deal with this?
