You can use a daily snapshot tarball instead, from http://www.libssh2.org/snapshots/ You don't need git to get diagnostics, just to get the absolute latest source code. The configure diagnostics are automatically logged to config.log, and the build logs are shown by default to stdout. > I will try another user other than root - appreciate the suggestion - > although there is nothing in the installation notes referring to this This is just basic security practise. You don't want arbitrary source code that you run to have full access to the system (although, you really have to have some trust in it if you're going to run it later), nor do you want to mess up the installation with an errant install or configuration change without checking what the code tries to do first. >>> Dan _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libssh2-devel
