You should read the 'make' man and/or info pages for information about it's usage. However, in your case, it seems your problem is that you aren't running 'make' from the directory where the makefile is located. 'cd' to 'home/administrator/min' and try again. You should have better luck. If not, refer to the docs I mentioned. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
