The whole thing is a source tree with libs, server, and clients.
It has an "autoconfig" that doesn't work for FreeBSD at all. I
hand-configured it. 

I can possibly take out the auto-config stuff, include the proper
config.h for FreeBSD 2.0.5R and include just the libs and the
server for now.

I've been running it for about a week now, and it works just fine.

I haven't submitted anything before, so I'm a newbie at the procedure.

Re the clients, they need some work. I have a compile on telnet, but
it doesn't appear to work. 8-) .
