I have no idea what the strnicmp function in your libc is supposed to do
- but looking at the function in ams/msclients/cui/cuifns.c - it appears
to be one of several of the attempts in the toolkit to do a
case-insensitive string comparison.

If your system's strnicmp function does this too - and accepts three
arguments: char *s1, char *s2, int len -- then I suggest you try
commenting out the function in cuifns.c -- something like:

#ifndef SS1_ENV /* I don't know what your sys-flags are - this is ONLY
an EXAMPLE */
strnicmp(s1, s2, len)
char *s1, *s2;
int len;
{
.....
}
#endif

And then try to recompile.

IF THIS WORKS -- send mail to info-andrew-bugs@andrew.cmu.edu to let
them know (a) that it is needed, and (b) what sys-type flag needs to be
used. (Alternatively, on this end - a different function name could be
used - especially if the function already exists in libutil.a -- i.e.
lc_strncmp)

IF THIS DOES NOT WORK -- post again with an update of the problems.


Hope this helps....
