So Close - cygwin error during compile...

I think I have everything in my makefile all set, but when compiling everything, here is what I get:

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.2/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lregex
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

In my makefile I have:
NEED_REG = -lregex
and also tried: NEED_REG = -lgnuregex
which fixed the re_exec errors, but both give me that above error now...

Any direction to point me to please?

Thanks

Search this forum, this has come up a few times. I thing the regex is only used in *one* place, which is a test for profanity. I usually comment it out. I am sure this has been covered elsewhere.

Thanks for responding!
I found the solution under: http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/bbshowpost.php?bbsubject_id=72
Works great now, although now I get one bug:
Log: [*****] BUG: Auth_check: exception found for user@their.ip.address.here

which doesn't seem to affect anything, but pops up whenever anyone connects...
I have been looking around for this fix, but haven't had any luck yet.

Thanks again

I think this is covered also. In the system folder, file system.dat I think you can set something to zero to stop it trying to do auth opens.

Try this link: Error message: 'Auth_open: connection refused'

I think that did the trick!
I wasn't sure if that was one in the same error, but sure enough it turns off ident, but since it never worked and only gave errors, it works great!

Thank you
