Frustratingly, RH9 added a requirement to OpenSSL (which the OpenSSL team told me that they shouldn't have done). The requirement is to include the krb5.h header from kerberos -- even if you're not using it -- in order to make OpenSSL-related programs compile. That, in itself, wouldn't be a big deal, if the RH9 team had put the header in the default areas to search for include files! But, since they didn't do that, it broke compatibilty with a lot of things. I wrote a workaround to this problem in CVS, which allows you to make the CVS versions compile in RH9. But, 0.16.5 was released before the workaround was written. Here's a hack that you can use to make 0.16.5 compile: http://archive.midrange.com/linux5250/200304/msg00015.html > > One thing - a long time ago I had keyboard buffering problems that were > fixed later (and are still fixed.)

If you want to try that, you can do this: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tn5250 co -D 1999-12-05 tn5250 That will check out the version of TN5250 that was in the HEAD branch on Dec 5th, 1999... You can also do: cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tn5250 co -r v0-16-1 tn5250 to get version 0.16.1 of tn5250. Using these techniques, you can try older versions and TN5250 and see if any of them worked. > I'll see if I can create a program that reproduces the error.
