nsl=name service library. All of it's functions are in FreeBSD implement in libc. If this mod_dispatcher.so is indeed loadable by FreeBSD's linker, then you can provide a dummy libnsl.so.1, like so: $ cat <'EOF' >BSDmakefile SHLIB=nsl SHLIB_MAJOR=1 NO_MAN=yes SRCS=nsl.c .include <bsd.lib.mk> EOF $ cat <'EOF' >nsl.c int nsl_dummy(void); int nsl_dummy(void) { return 0; } EOF $ make; sudo make LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib install The symbols it's looking for should be provided by libc, but if there's any undefined ones, this trickery gets a little dangerous and you're better off asking the developers for a native FreeBSD version. -- Mel _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
