1. Everything in ftp://coombs.anu.edu.au/pub/net/ip-filter/ is out of
date. It has pfil2.1 and ip_fil4.1.3 - these are way old. Either remove
this directory, or update it


fixed.

Thanks! (BTW, the bullets on the site under "included with following OS's" are messed up - you're missing a few DD and IMG tags).

5. I noticed that the Solaris instructions still say not to use gmake -
but several Sun employees have told me /usr/ccs/bin/make is considered
deprecated and only there for backwards compatiblity, and I should use
gmake or dmake. Is there a reason the makefiles don't work with gmake?
There's a test to make sure you don't use it, but why?

So long as it keeps working, what's the problem? When/if they remove /usr/ccs/bin/make, then I'll worry...

There's no problem. It's a pretty crufty make. As long as you don't require anything in /usr/ucb I'm OK. I was just throwing it out, as I've never seen a makefile that worked with solaris make but not gnu make.

6. I can't seem to build with gcc3 but gcc2 worked fine (not I'm on
intel, 32bit). This is what I get with gcc3:

gcc -I. -g -I../.. -D_BSD_SOURCE  -DSOLARIS2=9 -c ../../lib/debug.c -o
debug.o
./../lib/debug.c: In function `debug':
./../lib/debug.c:30: error: `__builtin_va_alist' undeclared (first use
in this function)


This is usually a general inidcation that your gcc installation is not
perfect.

Someone sent me an email saying this happens with versions of gcc 3 > 3.2.x, but < 3.2.x works. They also pointed me to the 3.3 readme which I haven't had time to read yet.
