I took the fedora 7 version, which is new enough and it installs on centos 5.5 without complaining for dependencies. If you do some patching to the official version, it also requires a newer autoconf version. Also for instalation it requires nss-mdns package, which i got from ATrpms. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
