Did the RPM work? There's one for Fedora 14 as well...

Hi! It sounds to me like you've got the runtime support for libpcap
installed, but not the "development" support.
For libraries, .so files (so == Shared Object) are used at runtime,
while .a (Archive) files are used at compile time. (well, more
specifically at link time). The former are dynamically-linked shared
libraries, whereas the latter are non-shared libraries for static linking.
These days, compilation support is rarely included by default on Linux
OS or package distributions to save space. One must explicitly install
the "dev" version of the library, which typically gets you .a files for
static linking, as well as the header (.h) files.
I've never seen Fedora 14, so I don't know exactly how its package
repository system works, but you'll need to find and install whatever
package corresponds to "libpcap-dev" or something very similarly named.
This should get you going.

On CentOS it was called libpcap-devel, so yum install libpcap-devel did the trick.
Well, sort of. For some reason the makefile needs to be hacked to point at /usr/lib instead of /usr/local/lib and /usr/include vs /usr/local/include, and it still doesn't work on 64 bit distros, saying the .a file is 32 bit only..

OK,
I know I'm not really answering your question but have you tried installing it through an rpm?
I found one here: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/17350842/dir/fedora_16/com/simh…

SG1:: and the Multinet Tunnel have returned to the Eastern US Hub. For
those who need it, resolve bridge.declab.net for the address.
Restoration of the bridge connection is in progress...

Hi Guys,
That's my bad - the AlphaServer 1000A that runs hecnet.eu is currently
switched off but will be back up next week. I had previously implemented
a squid cache on a box that is always up 24/7 but an ubuntu upgrade and
not enough time mean that's not currently working - I'll take another
look when I get a chance.
Mark, what kind of content is there on hecnet.eu? I've started to get my web server for RSX running... ;-)
