Christopher, Thanks for the tip, it was what I needed. The sources were able to compile but I am still having problems. If someone would be willing to write me a complete procedure I would really appreciate it. Even after reading the docs I am sure I am missing things. It would really bring up my learning curve on compiling and installing binaries. Thanks again, Lance Hallmark
