Hi gurus,

I'll try asking this question here as I haven't received a response from
questions. I see from the archives that there was a bit of traffic on
npasswd in July as it was recommended for enforcing good passwords. I've
followed the detailed instructions for building npasswd at

http://www.cert.org/security-improvement/implementations/i028.05.html

and survive the make depend but not the make. I've tried a LOT of different
combinations of the questions asked in the configure script but I'm not a
programmer so am truly guessing when they're asking about "int" and
"void" and such. Anyone have any hints on running the configure script for
FreeBSD 4.2? I've also tried running Configure using the default switch,
but no better luck.

Thanks.

Dru

Has anyone been able to get "npasswd" to survive a make on a FreeBSD 4.2
system? I think I must be answering something wrong in the configure
script; it's asking for some pretty specific stuff about my programming
environment.
