Hi Dan, thanks for the reply. i'd been having problems using the make
setdb, which i resolved by moving the ${CDB} tag to the end of the line (on
another post in here). because i'd tried to build whilst this issue was
present i decided to reinstall the OS and start from scratch.
It now works..
Cheers
Chris
