Ranga,


Just downloaded wu-ftp 2.6.2 and trying to install on OS/390 SuSE 8.

You probably mean SuSE's SLES8 for s390.

I had a look at this source (*cringe*) and managed to fix it up so it'll
build.  Save the attached diff file to something like /tmp/wu-ftpd.diff,
then run:

tar -xzvf wu-ftpd-2.6.2.tar.gz
cd wu-ftpd-2.6.2
patch -p0 < /tmp/wu-ftpd.diff
./build lnx

Then everything should build properly, and that should fix your
immediate problem.

Now... when running './build', it warns you that you should really use
autoconf.  So I tried that, and it detected my platform as
"s390-pc-linux-gnuoldld".  Clearly wu-ftpd needs some attention.

Chose 'lnx' for ./build xxx I get some 'incomplete type' messages and then when trying './build install' says it could not find the target /bin/ftpd, guess this is because it did not compile/link correctly. 'gcc' is installed and I even specified "./build CC=gcc lnx"

I am proceeding with proftpd.

If any of you have successfully installed wu-ftpd, please tell me what I
am doing wrong.
