Jochen;

Please excuse my ignorance... ... you say:

Sorry, didn't notice that you are using gcc and not the HP compiler. It's -fPIC then.

What's -fPIC? I tried putting this at the end of the "Makefile" command, but that didn't work... I'm starting to think windows DSN's are much better to use than Unix (heaven forbid, but they're easier to set up!!!)....

I hope I'm not asking too many stupid questions, but I'm not a sysAdmin (and not used to making stuff and compiling things... just used to writing scripts and such)...

Thanks;

Keith
