Hello all,

I am curious to find out if anyone can explain shared libs...

Background; when compiling tcp_wrappers-7.6 from source
libwrap.a is created.  In the FreeBSD port, however, there
is an additional lib, libwrap.so.7.6 (and a symblink to it
from libwrap.so).

OK, my question, what is the difference between libwrap.a
and libwrap.so.7.6, under what circumstances is each one
used, and how do I create libwrap.so.7.6 from sources?


Cordially,
