Hello andrew,

 AI>> I am trying to build the tools in the huskmisc directory, poll, send
 AI>> and request and am getting an error. Looks like in general.c. It says
 AI>> "undefined reference to `string2addr'.

 AI>> Aanyone know what that means and if I can fix it?

 AI>> I am not a coder myself so if the source needs work or what.. I don't
 AI>> know.

 ac> string2addr() was removed from fidoconf/src/common.c in November 2007:

 ac> http://husky.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/husky/fidoconf/src/common.c?view=l
 ac> og

 ac> So it looks like huskmisc has been broken since then.

That's a long time!

 ac> I'm not sure it's as simple as re-adding that function back into the
 ac> code, because some other things have changed in the Fidoconf/Huskylib
 ac> code since then.

 ac> You could file a bug, I suppose...

I suppose if it has gone unnoticed that long folks must have moved on
and/or found other ways to do what they need to do.

 Ttyl :-),
