The file 'vars_linux.mk' will be used for various platform-dependant
rules and build options.

Please insure that it makes sense for your platform. If it does not,
fix it, and submit your changes back to the Maximus development team.

If you have any installation-specific changes to make, you can edit
the file 'vars_local.mk'.


Creating vars.mk; using PREFIX=/var/max

Maximus was written by Scott Dudley (Lanius Corporation),
Peter Fitzsimmions, and David Nugent, and released in 2002
under the GPL (GNU Public Licence). The UNIX port is by
Wes Garland. Type "make gpl" to view the text of the
licence.

Paths:                  (edit vars.mk to change)
         prefix         /var/max
         libraries      /var/max/lib
         binaries       /var/max/bin

Targets:
         build          build maximus, squish and SqaFix
         config_install install configuration files
         install        build and install everything
         squish         build squish
         squish_install build and install squish
         sqafix         build SqaFix
         sqafix_install build and install SqaFix
         max            build maximus
         max_install    build and install maximus


Testing your build environment..

Testing your version of GNU make: /usr/bin/gmake
 - Looks fine to me! (version 3.79.1)
Testing your C compiler..
 - Looks fine to me!
Determining platform endianness..
 - Chose LITTLE_ENDIAN
Testing size of stamp_combo..
 - Looks fine to me!

Configuration complete.

Post-Install, it would be wise to make a bbs user and
group, and change directory ownerships appropriately.
'chmod -R bbs:bbs /var/max' should work nicely.

 BJ> What is the environment you are using?  [Red Hat version ?]

Mandrake v9.0 (also have v9.1).

Doesnt look like a fault in configure, well its not producing an error see 
above.

I could try and compile under Mandrake v9.1 as I have kept that one upto date 
with fixes. What do you suggest?
