Hi There,

And thanks for reading this. I am trying to get the ax25-utils-2.1.42a to work
with Red Hat Linux 5.2 (Kernel 2.0.36)

I have enabled AX25 Support in the Kernel as per the AX25-HOWTO instructions.

However I am having trouble compiling the ax25-utils.

I have run the following

cd /usr/src
tar xvfz ax25-utils-2.1.42a.tar.gz
cd ax25-utils-2.1.42a
make config

make
make install

However when I wrong the last two I seem to get error messages, a few of which
are

/usr/include/linux/socket.h:95: waring: MSG_PROXY redefined
/usr/include/socketbits.h:145: warning: this is the location of the previous
definition.

/usr/include/linux/socket.h: redefinition of 'struct sockaddr'
/usr/include/linux/socket.h: redefinition of 'struct linger'
/usr/include/linux/socket.h: redefinition of 'struct msghdr'

[axconfig.o] Error 1

etc etc etc....

And therefore I do not have any of the utils (such as kissattach etc) in the
/usr/sbin directory.

Can anyone help me with this please, I must be going wrong somewhere!

Cheers

Chris
