APR from SVN now gives me a clean configure when I do C:\Users\zdavatz\software\apr>sh buildconf Nice! Once again thanks for the hint! This should go into the documentation somewhere. Please let me know where I can update the documentation for the next Greenhorn-Zeno around the corner. I guess this will be the Apache-Wiki. I would also add some steps howto install MinGW and run "mingw-get install *package*" or "mingw-get update" Best Zeno
