Basically you do not need these libs. -lsocket is a lame SRV4 (i think) thing because BSD sockets are simulated (poorly) via userland code. If you get any unresolved symbols check the function's manpage, or us 'nm' on the libraries in /usr/lib to locate it. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
