Problems building VLS under windows

Hi all,
 
I am trying to build VLS-0.5.3 using Visual C++.Net and encounter some problems.
I manage to build the project without error but when VLS is ran, the following error occurs:
"Reading file vls.cfg for base configuration
Implicit declaration of input 'local1'
...
VideoLAN Server v 0.5.3 (Jan  8 2004) - (c)1999-2003 VideoLAN
ASSERT ERROR in f:\videolan\vls-0.5.3\src\core\file.cpp line 581 (code checked: false)
..."
The problem seems to be that HAVE_OPENDIR in 'defs.h' is not defined. However if it is defined, I get compile time error as:
"...videolan\vls-0.5.3\src\core\core.h(63) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'dirent.h': No such file or directory tsstreamer.cpp..."
Can anyone please help?
Thanks for any help in advance.
 
NM.
