Hi Michael, I wrote that section, so bear with me as if it is wrong then I need to do something about it. You're the second person to mention this, but I've been totally unable to reproduce this problem on anything post 4.1.1-RELEASE (and I don't have any other versions to test). After following that document I end up with : root@amam named-xfer# pwd /usr/src/libexec/named-xfer root@amam named-xfer# ls Makefile named-xfer named-xfer.o pathnames.h tmp_version.o db_glue.o named-xfer.8.gz ns_glue.o tmp_version.c It seems that the initial report of a problem was due to pilot error, but it was the exact same error which worries me; I need a bit more information since I can't reproduce the problem. Is there any chance that you could step through the whole document again while running under script to catch the output (mail me if you don't know how to do this) ? What version of FreeBSD are you running ? Thanks, Ceri -- keep a mild groove on To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
