Hi Brad, > gcc -g -O2 -Wall -o vchkpw vchkpw.o libvpopmail.a -L/root/mysql/lib/mysql >-lmysqlclient -lz -lnsl -lcrypt -lm > /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
That means that zlib ist missing. > What is the -lz all about (I am a long way from being any kind of programmer...) "-l" specifies a library which gcc should link against. After "-l" follows the name of that library, in your case "z". It means the file /usr/lib/libz.so, which doesn't seem to be installed on your system. On Debian, you should install the zlib1g[-dev] package. Regards, Jonas
