Yes, please let me know.. I tried to get it to work with dynamic
modules last night and it did not work.  If you get it, give a few
hints, like what version of the dld libs you used, etc.  Also, 
can you try to compile the Tk module into it?  I'm ready to run it
either statically or dynamically at this point.  I have been unsuccessful
after several attempts.  

Also, the new issue of _Linux Journal_ had a page on ELF
(page 10, "Stop the Presses: ELF Tools Released for Linux)."  I'm still
disappointed that Slackware is not all-ELF yet.  

Page 12 had a book Review on _Sendmail: Theory and Practice_ by
Avolio and Vixie ISBN 1-55558-127-7.  This is supposed to
be less intimidating and easier to use than Eric Allman's 
O' Reilly book.  I ordered this book today from clbooks.com 
along with _Unix System Administration Handbook_ by
Nemeth/Snyder/Seebass.  The 2nd edition was published in the
beginning of 1995 and I heard some good reviews of it on the net:

   Comments: Excellent overview of almost everything you need to know, 
   useful both to read and as a
   reference. Lots of good examples. Mainly covers BSD UNIX, but tries to 
   cover both where it can.
   Rating: *****

Note that the above is a comment from an online book review.  I have
not read the book yet.
