Hi

I am trying to compile wu-ftpd-2.4.2-beta16 on a Linux box (kernel 2.0.36)
in the vain hope that I might be able to get SITE EXEC to work.  However I
am getting the following error.

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?

ftpd.o: In function 'pass':
ftpd.o(.text+0x163a): undefined reference to 'crypt'
private.o: In function 'priv_gpass':
private.o(.text+0x385): undefined reference to 'crypt'
make: *** [ftpd] Error 1

thanks
Austin

Use -lcrypt to link against that library.

Thanks for you help but could you please supply just a little more info as I
haven't done much compiling before.

How exacly do I use -lcrypt to link against the library?

Also, why do I need to do it?  It doesn't say anything about it in the
installation instructions.

Thanks
Austin
