I am trying to build Ethereal using VC++ SP6.
 
I have installed cygwin., vc++, environment variables are set.
 
nmake -f makefile.nmake distclean --------> successfully done
nmake -f make.nmake verify_tools ----------> successfully done
 
nmake -f make.nmake setup
 
Here there was problem with My proxy setting so i downloaded all the required library into specified directories by make.nmake & config.nmake.
so in a way this step is also successfully done.
 
Problem :
 
nmake -f makefile.nmake
 
when i do this there is a error
 
C:\ETHERE~1.14>nmake -f Makefile.nmake all

This is almost certainly an environment problem on your machine.  Are you sure you have run vcvars32.bat in the cmd window BEFORE running nmake?
 
What is your OS?  Can you post the output of "set" after your nmake has failed?
