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, _____________________________________________ Andrew Perkins andrew@violet.org System Administrator 415.739.0540 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
