If you are using Perl 5.005, GnuDIP will fail with the message "Can't locate warnings.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ...". You can suppress this error by creating a file called "warnings.pm" in the "lib" directory of your Perl installation, containing "1;" on a single line. You may however want to upgrade to Perl 5.6.x instead. Future releases of GnuDIP will probably require this. I had to switch to using warnings.pm instead of the "-w" command line option to suppress a spurious warning message from a base Perl module that was killing the INETD server on some systems. This was not available until 5.6.0. The other option would be to run with no Perl warnings, but that would make it harder to diagnose bugs from a distance. Alternatively, you can remove the "use warnings;" lines everywhere it occurs in GnuDIP. Yesterday, I changed the client scripts back to using "-w", since this was really only a problem in the server. -- Creighton MacDonnell http://macdonnell.ca/ -- GnuDIP Mailing List http://gnudip2.sourceforge.net/#mailinglist
