My first task is to get a buildable version working under Windows 2000. When I get tired of that, I get to do it again under HP-UX. Anyway, to my point, I've read a lot of docs, readmes and a lot of the emails regarding doing this under Windows. This is totally new to me so bare with me. I am familiar with VC++ 6.0 and that is what is installed on my Windows system. The directions in the Readme seem to take into account details that are not obvious to me. For instance, where do I put the Cygwin stuff in relation to the sources (it assumes I already have it), why doesn't the source tree come with make.exe, etc. The source I downloaded came from SN50-010322-source.zip. I've set up the environment with limited success creating the make file, when making my source directory a sub-directory of where the Cygwin.bat file is installed. I did see some errors, mainly couldn't find a certain file. But it made a makefile. However, the make doesn't run now because make.exe doesn't exist. Do I need to get that too? Where do I get one that is already built. What other issues am I going to run into? Long story short, is there a much more detailed, or canned approach available that I can follow step by step knowing I have a Windows system with just VC++6.0 loaded on it? One that includes everything that I need to download and what/how to configure? I'm not real familiar with the unix arena but am with the Windows. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The downloaded executable forms of SN work great on Windows, so I know it is buildable. Thanks in advance. Bruce Edson
