Hallo,

 

I have problems to link the source Code of ethereal-0.10.8 on my Windows XP (SP #1) machine and cannot solve the problem. The build output is as follows.

 

C:\ethereal-0.10.8>nmake -f Makefile.nmake

I inspected all readme files and the Ethereal FAQs but could not find the cause for my linker problems.

 

On Windows XP SP #1 I have the following packages installed in this order

- Visual Studio 6.0 SP #6

- DDK for WXP

- Microsoft Platform SDK February 2003

- Ethereal source code in C:\ethereal-0.10.8

- cygwin latest version in c:\cygwin (nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools is succesful)

- Additional libraries in c:\ethereal-win32-libs (with nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup)

 

 

Thank you very much for any help.
