As is udpcast wants a busybox installation in order to compile. I've replaced all "libbb_udpcast.h" occurences by "udpcast.h" (my brain was in standby mode) and all "xmalloc" calls by "malloc" and udpcast did compile. I couldn't test it yet (no network at home), but it runs. Alain, do want to add a feature to compile without BB or should I send you a patch? *t -- Bad times for dictators. At least in the oil regions. Goedart Palm
