System V looks on networking as an "add-on", and keeps networking code in separate libraries. BSD looks on networking as part of the system, and it keeps the functions in the standard C library. Just remove the -libsocket and -libnsl options from your Makefile, and everything should be OK. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
