I didn't get a confirmation mail or anything so here goes ... I'm trying to compile a simple C program to access a db and dump out the info (for testing purposes). Here is what I get when I try to compile it: ebulon:/var/www/www.miester.org/cgi-bin# gcc -g -o miesterc miesterc.c -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -lmysqlclient -lsocket -lnsl /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsocket collect2: ld returned 1 exit status I have installed the deb package socket ... not sure what I need to do from here (I'm somewhat new to C as well ...) Thanks for any help and please cc me since I'm not sure if I'm on the list yet.
