1To make NNTP run on SYSV Release 2 or earlier, do the following: 2 31. Get the Berkeley Directory Library emulation package. You can get it 4from ftp.academ.com in /pub/nntp1.5/ndir.shar. This is the so-called NDIR 5package. Install it. (If you don't know if you have it, look for the 6file ndir.h in /usr/include. If it is there, you have the NDIR library 7and can move on the step 2.) 8 92. Edit conf.h. Make sure you define USG and look at all the other 10stuff in there to be sure you have defined all the other things you 11need. (You will most likely need to define U_LONG, ALONE, vfork, and 12FAKESYSLOG. You will most likely need to undefine FASTFORK, BSD_42, 13DBM, SUBNET, NETMASK, DAMAGED_NETMASK, and DECNET.) You will probably 14need to undefine SYSLOG if you don't define FAKESYSLOG. 15 163. Edit the Makefile in the root directory of the nntp sources. Make sure to 17add -lndir to the LIBS line. If you have EXCELAN, you will probably need to 18add a -lsocket here aswell. If the networking include files are not in the 19"standard location" (e.g. /usr/include), be sure to modify the CFLAGS lines to 20add -Ilocation_of_the_network_include_files. 21 224. Now, you can cd to the root directory of the nntp sources and type 23"make server" to make the server programs. 24 25If you have problems, send mail to nntp@academ.edu and he will help if he 26can. 27 28Stan Barber (update 11/15/94) 29 30
