That's just the current source code.  You also need some documentation and
control file examples, and I'm not sure what else (for the install tree)
from a .tar.gz file that Wes released.  I think this additional file has
files that still need cleanup for placing in the GPL'ed CVS archive on
sourceforge.....  But I may be wrong on that.....

Not quite....

Yes, you need that file.  It contains configuration information,
documentation, and I forget what else.....

 GK> Seems to be so some things left to fix (at least for FreeBSD). :)

Looks like you need to help us figure out what additional define is needed
for FreeBSD.  We probably have a define for Linux that you aren't using
under FreeBSD that will correct the problem.....

Not at this point....  Maybe someone else in the echo can help with this in
a more timely fashion that I'll be able to.

Take care.....
