Also, I would be happy to do test compiles under different OS installs. I can't really help with the coding much, but would be happy to contribute in other ways. That may be off-topic for this list though. :)<br><br>Thanks,

<br>autotools problems I have been looking at. The relevant lines are:<br>#ifndef HAVE_CLOSEFROM<br>int closefrom(int fd);<br>#endif<br>But clearly there is a system closefrom, so either the macro is<br>undefined, or the configure test missed the system one. Try adding

<br>is usually not what you want - it's usualy easier to add the tests to<br>the top level configure script and source the config.h from the top level.<br><br>But again, I've just started looking - there may be reasons (historical
