Read the info documentation (type 'info doc/libnetblock.info') to always get the current information.

LibNetBlock, in various versions, has been successfully compiled on the following systems:

• Fedora 12 GNU/Linux, i686
• Mandriva 2011 (gcc 4.6.1) GNU/Linux, i686
• OpenMandriva 3.0, 4.2, 4.3 (gcc 11.2.0) GNU/Linux, amd64

Requirements for compiling:

• a working C compiler (C++ compilers won't work due to variable casts)
• development package for the C library (like glibc-devel and glibc-headers)
• libdl, the dynamic loading library, with its development package (unless the required functions are in the C library)
• the 'make' program

Type ./configure to configure the library for your system.
Type make to compile the program.
Type make install to install the program. NOTE: 'make install' is NOT recommended. Create and install an RPM package instead, if possible.
