Am I replying correctly or are these screwing up the "threads" again?

I am using outlook express and will continue to do so throughout this ordeal
so if its ruining the "web page" posting please tell me now so I can do it
correctly.

I hit "reply all" to respond to these is that correct?

**Also, please scroll down for the comments to this post, they actually
worked now I have a new error.

a "duff"  = messed up? Or something specific?

Ok I think I am making progress

[root@www qmail-1.03]# ln -s /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys
/usr/include/sys

[root@www qmail-1.03]# cp /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/types.h
/usr/include/sys/
cp: `/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/types.h' and
`/usr/include/sys/types.h' are the same file

[root@www qmail-1.03]# cp /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/stat.h
/usr/include/sys/
cp: `/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/include/sys/stat.h' and
`/usr/include/sys/stat.h' are the same file

[root@www qmail-1.03]# make setup check
/compile qmail-local.c
In file included from qmail-local.c:1:
/usr/include/sys/types.h:26: features.h: No such file or directory
/usr/include/sys/types.h:30: bits/types.h: No such file or directory

/usr/include/sys/stat.h:89: bits/stat.h: No such file or directory
make: *** [qmail-local.o] Error 1

That looks like progress to me ...

Me too!

Red Hat 6.0 with all www related security updates including a 2.2.16 kernel
I compiled on another machine and transferred over.
