Has anyone successfully built this software for RedHat 2.0? Or any other<br />
distribution for that matter? Perhaps there is a hack for the header file<br />

Micro Annex XL

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
