I've tried compiling VNC 3.3.3r2 on Irix 6.5.14f. I follow the
instructions:

xmkmf
make World

This works fine with a few warnings, and it creates a copy of vncviewer.

But when I try the next step, cd Xvnc; make World, I get

make: file `Makefile.proto' line 555: Must be a separator (: or ::) for
rules (bu39)
make: file `Makefile.proto' line 556: Must be a separator (: or ::) for

`../../config/makedepend/makedepend' (bu36)
make: file `Makefile.proto' line 573: Syntax error
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

and the make process stops.

The cc I'm using is /usr/bin/cc, the compiler that comes with Irix. I
also tried to use gcc, but got no further.
I've tried 
make World (as in documentation)
make BOOTSTRAPFLAGS=-DSVRX World (as hinted in Xvnc/config/cf/sgi.cf)
make BOOTSTRAPFLAGS=-DFIXUP_CPP_WHITESPACE World (as suggested in an
email on this list)
make -k World (also suggested in an email)

Has anybody succeeded in compiling Xvnc under Irix 6.5.14f or 6.5?

I've downloaded the package from freeware.sgi.com; this claims to
contain both viewer and server, but seems only to contain the viewer. 

This looks like a FAQ...I've seen a number of questions on this issue
posted. But has anyone got a solution that might work for me? If so,
reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as I'm not on the vnc list.

Thanks in advance...Dick
