Re: Undefined foreign symbol: "crypt"

Thanks Russ, your comments have pointed me to the right direction.
I finally resolved it as follows :
1) I checked whether I had a libcrypt anywhere.
2) I found /lib/libcrypt-2.11.2.so
3) I symbolic linked /lib/libcrypt.so to /lib/libcrypt-2.11.2.so
Next it worked.
Best wishes, Wout Perquin
