My system dosn't have perl on it(FreeBSD1.1.5.1). I installed the system from the bindist files i FTP'd. Was i supposed to add somthing else that contained perl? Also, i tried to compile GNU's perl5.000 but got this error when i ran make: In file included from POSIX.c:50: /usr/include/unistd.h:173: conflicting types for `fork' /usr/include/unistd.h:69: previous declaration of `fork' *** Error code 1 Stop. *** Error code 1 Stop. I ran the configure with -d so that it would answer the question by itself because i wasn't sure how to answer some. I then did a "make depend" with no errors reported. Can someone tell me what this means?? Thanks for any help, Ron -- [-Ronald W. Porter-------------------][-Running FreeBSD1.1.5.1-------] [-Univ.
