Michael,

are you running hobbit on IPSO? If so, which major version did you  get it working on? 3.8, 3.9 of 4.?

I was thinking about asking Nokia to build a package, so it is  installable through voyager.

Best regards,
Arnoud

I did just like you said ....

OK, the best bet then is probably to build the binaries on another
system, and link them statically. I.e. find a linux box where you can
build the Hobbit client. Run the normal "./configure --client", then
edit the generated Makefile and near the bottom right after where it
says
  # Add local CFLAGS etc. settings here
add this line:
  CFLAGS=-static

Then run "make" as usual and "make install", then you should be  able to
just copy the client directory to the secured servers.

It required some hand editing of the source codes files to link to  the currect headers in the include directories.
But it worked, and its working now :-)

thanx so much, michael

Henrik,

Thanx so much for getting back to me so quickly. The problem is  that I am running a very, very secure version of Linux called  Secure Platform from Checkpoint.
They made their own gcc libraries and compiler and Make is not  installed. So I downloaded "Make" and tried compiling it and when  i try and run ./configure it breaks because the C-compiler is not  allowed to create executables. I cant upgrade the libraries  because it will break the software.
