Is it possible that you can help with a problem I am having with 
installing wu-ftpd to run under SCO UNIX v5.0.0 on a Compaq Prosignia 
500? I have encountered various probs, and resolved all but this last 
one. Here is the text:

# ./build sco
make args are :
make opts are :

Linking Makefiles.
ln: cannot create Makefile: File already exists // This bit is OK
ln: cannot create config.h: File already exists //
ln: cannot create Makefile: File already exists //

Making support library.
        rm -f libsupport.a
        ar clq libsupport.a getusershell.o fnmatch.o strcasestr.o 
strsep.o  a
user.o ftw.o sco.o
        /bin/true libsupport.a

Making ftpd.
        cc -O -I.. -I../support -L../support -DSCO_FTPD -DSCO_KEEPA  -o 
ftpd

realpath.

syslog                              ftpd.o
ld fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to ftpd
*** Error code 13 (bu21)

Making ftpcount.
`ftpcount' is up to date.

Making ftpshut.
`ftpshut' is up to date.

Making ckconfig.
`ckconfig' is up to date.
ln: cannot create ftpwho: File already exists     // This is OK
ln: cannot create ckconfig: File already exists   // This is OK

Links to executables are in bin directory:
i386size: bin/ftpd: cannot open
bin/ftpcount: 12212 + 10236 + 3244 = 25692
bin/ftpshut: 5424 + 9712 + 3224 = 18360
bin/ftpwho: 12212 + 10236 + 3244 = 25692
bin/ckconfig: 18164 + 7968 + 3664 = 29796
Done

It's only the FTPD file creation which is the problem, as you can see. I 
would be more than grateful for any thoughts,
Regards
Pete
