I'm not sure what module file you are using as a template, but I have used nszlib.
Here are two examples: nszlib: http://junom.com/gitweb/gitweb.perl?p=aolserver.git;a=blob;f=aolserver/nszlib/nszlib.c nsbgwrite: http://junom.com/gitweb/gitweb.perl?p=aolserver.git;a=blob;f=aolserver/nsbgwrite/nsbgwrite.c You can browse for the associated .h and Makefile. tom jackson On Sunday 23 March 2008 02:21, Mark Aufflick wrote: > Slight prototype fix to my .c file, but no change to the issue/ > > On Sun, Mar 23, 2008 at 7:45 PM, Mark Aufflick > > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > So I'm trying to write a new loadable module.
