Re: OTCL installing problems

[Miten Mehta <mmehta@cs.tamu.edu>]

line gcc -0 otclsh -g ...  should include "-lsocket" & "-lnsl" on solaris
platform. ( Do not add this if you are doing compilation on FreeBSD, and
may be other BSDs )

socket, connect, accept, bind etc. are part of "socket" library and 
getpeername, gethostbyname etc. utility functions are part of "nsl"
library. So you need to add those 2 library names in your compilation
command.

Adding this 2 libraries will remove all the problems listed by you.

Thanks,

Miten.
