Hi,

I'm trying to build Ethereal on a Win2000 machine. It has MSVC 6.0
installed, and I downloaded sed, flex, bison, perl, and python.

I got the 0.10.0a source and added the missing makefile to the tools
directory.

I downloaded all the dependant libraries and put them in
C:\ethereal-win32-libs.

Evidently I'm still missing something, because when I build I get the
following error:

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make '../make-tapreg-dotc'

What would cause that error?

Just as a guess, I copied make-reg-dotc.py to make-tapreg-dotc and I got
past that problem. That doesn't seem right, though. What is the correct
solution?

THEN, I built some more and got the following error:

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make 'x11-fields'

What is the cause of that?

I'm stuck here.

Thanks,
Paul
