Why: Shared object "protocol.cnet" not found 1 error found. I have spoken to Chris McDonald and he says that this happens because the "protocol source files have not been compiled correctly for cnet to be able to dynamically load them in" So I guess this is a problem with the freebsd patches to config.h etc. Is there a patch for this of do I need to update my ports tree? (that will take too long of me as I have limited access to bandwidth). Sorry if I've sent this to the wrong address. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Richard. CS Student UWA.
