I found my answer in one of the other source files.
I changed the line
"drop_root_and_removesuid();" in client/clientupdate.c
to match a similar line in client/logfetch.c:
"drop_root_and_removesuid(argv[0]);" 

That seems to have done the trick, and it compiled fine and seem to be
running fine too.

	 
	Ah, looks like "drop_root_and_removesuid()" is expecting a char
*.  I'm not sure what "fn" the function refers to, so I'm not sure how
to fix the problem.

	 
		I had this happen on SLES 9 (server) and Tru64 5.1b PK5
(client)

		What OS was that on?  I got the same thing with OpenBSD
3.8.

			 
			Greetings,

			 
			I just got the nightly snapshot and now I am
getting the following error when trying to compile it:

			 
			clientupdate.c: In function 'main':

			clientupdate.c:49: error: too few arguments to
function 'drop_root_and_removesuid'

			make[1]: *** [clientupdate] Error 1

			make[1]: Leaving directory
'/home/hobbit/snapshot/client'

			make: *** [client] Error 2

			 
			Any ideas?

			 
			Thanks,
