Hi All...

The problem was that my umask was set to 0177. This made the conftest.sh not 
executable, and so not found for execution.

Thanks,

...Karl

Hi All...

Its looking for conftest, but I don't see one anywhere. Where should I find 
it?

configure:1022: PATH=".;."; conftest.sh
conftest.sh: not found
configure:1025: $? = 127
configure:1079: checking for gcc
configure:1094: found /usr/bin/gcc
configure:1102: result: gcc

configure:1336: $? = 0
configure:1338: gcc -v </dev/null >&5
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/specs

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

Thanks,

I got this problem several times.  There are two reasons why it happened
to me:  I had two different versions of cygwin1.dll on my PATH/System,
the second time I couldn't figure out what happened, I reinstalled some
packages (cygwin, gcc), rebooted and then it works again.

Check the file config.log to see what configure did.  It will show
you the problem.

Not needed.  OpenSSH isn't using any regex implementation anymore.

Problem building OpenSSH

[Karl M]

Hi All...

It has been a long time since I built OpenSSH. When I cd into the source 
directory and do the configure shown in the readme file, I get the 
following.

$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libexecdir=/usr/sbin
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output... a.exe
checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C 
compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

What do I have broken?

Also, I have in my notes using --with-pcre as a configure otion. Is that 
needed (why/why not)?

Thanks,

...Karl
