Hi all,

I'm looking for a bit of help. I'm trying to compile and install
checkpassword following the instructions at
http://cr.yp.to/checkpwd/install.html but i'm getting an error when
doing the make command.

I was wondering if anyone had had a similar problem and could possibly
provide me with a solution.

When typing the make command, it starts compiling the code until this
happens:

==========================

./load checkpassword prot.o unix.a byte.a  `cat \
shadow.lib` `cat crypt.lib` `cat s.lib`
checkpassword.o(.text+0xfa): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `errno'
checkpassword.o(.text+0x243): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `errno'
checkpassword.o(.text+0x265): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `errno'
unix.a(pathexec_run.o)(.text+0xf6): In function `pathexec_run':
: undefined reference to `errno'
unix.a(pathexec_run.o)(.text+0x13a): In function `pathexec_run':
: undefined reference to `errno'
unix.a(alloc.o)(.text+0x48): more undefined references to `errno' follow
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [checkpassword] Error 1

==========================


I am comiling on a linux RedHat 9 system, 
Intel Celeron 2000Mhz processor 
using gcc (GCC) 3.2.2
256Mb Ram


could anyone please point me in the right direction.


Thanks in advance.
