Looks like it is there.

Ok you are going to have to slow down a bit, I am not a programmer.  Passing
that to ./configure or make breaks them with an error.  If I ./configure
like normal then edit the Makefile by hand it gives the error

--host~/open/openssh-1.2.2 -->make
Makefile:38: *** missing separator.  Stop.

Even if the only thing I do is open the file in vi or pico, hit enter,
backspace then exist and save the file (Basically doing nothing but changing
the modification date) it will trip the above error on me.  I tried putting
it under cflags and ldpath and it gives the same error.  I don't know how I
am supose to edit the file if the slightest thing causes it to barf.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jack
