Larry, Thank you for your response - I tried installing cvs V1.10.8 but had the same error so I commented out the line in /usr/include/netinet/in.h (#include <netinet/in6.h) and continued the 'make' and this completed with no further errors - and the 'make install' created the cvs executable. Thanks again for your help. Regards, Dave Connolley D G Connolley _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
