Yes. It looks like normal file descriptor operations. ;) One possibility... Assuming you're compiling fine, but it's not working or is generating massive errors... Did you make sure that you have the right version of db installed? If it is really old, it may be using 1.85 or something older. It may be that there is just enough compatibility to get it to compile, but not operate as desired. Try verifying the old version then see if you've got the right libs and devel packages installed. For instance for 1.85... db1-1.85-x db1-devel-1.85-x Then you should just have to make sure you link to the right one. -- Brian Ashe CTO Dee-Web Software Services, LLC.
