Hey everyone...
I have a C file that I can't compile on a new Linux web server. The cgi
script uses crypt (along with a few other things) to change a user's
password. The users and passwords are used to authenticate people to a
certain web page so this isn't a utility for the regular OS users.
The first problem is with crypt. I did a man crypt on the Linux box and it
told me what to #include in order to use that function and I've modified the
source accordingly. It compiles fine but gives me an "undefined reference
to crypt in a temporary .o file created in /tmp.
Here's the makefile:
change-passwd.cgi: chage-passwd.c
gcc change-passwd.c util.o
There is also a call to uswitch in the source file. I did a man uswitch on
the old box (Digital Unix v3.0) and this is OS specific. Do I even need
this on the Linux box....not real sure what it is doing?
So:
1. Does someone know of a better base source file I can start with to
accomplish the same purpose on the Linux box?
2. Is there something I can do to fix the one I have?
Thanks for the help.
Tim.
