So I went back to version 4.10.14 and compiled with no errors, except "clearopensmtp" still didn't work, and just to be on the safe side I defined "--enable-mysql-replication" equal to NO as suggested by someone else. You wanted the configure script so here it is as follows, however I am about to give up with VpopMail as it's just to hard for a non-programmer to get going, and I need an email server running yesterday if not sooner. Alternatively I will try a standard form of authentication, I really don't know what I will do, I've been at this for weeks....... ./configure --mandir=/usr/share/man --enable-roaming-users=y --enable-auth-logging=y --enable-logging=v --enable-mysql=y --enable-mysql-replication=n --enable-valias=y --enable-passwd=n --enable-hardquota=3000000 As I said before, it compiles ok on version 4.10.14 but I can't run clearopensmtp, and it just causes heaps of errors in vauth.c in version 4.10.16 Hope you can help ASAP please Thanks in advance Regards Roger Ken Jones wrote: > What configuration options did you use. > > Also, download the vpopmail-4.10.16 version.
