nope, I never did find out what the problem was. I did a recursive unix2dos for the entire ethereal directory, and still had the same errors.

Sorry!

In response to the post by PC Drew:

When I compile the package on win32 using Visual C++ 97, it seems that
every file has parse errors:  .\buffer.h(43) : error C2059: syntax error
: ')'
.\buffer.h(44) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before '*'
.\buffer.h(44) : error C2143: syntax error : missing '{' before '*'
.\buffer.h(44) : error C2059: syntax error : 'type'
.\buffer.h(44) : error C2059: syntax error : ')'
.\wtap.c(235) : error C4013: 'buffer_free' undefined; assuming  .....
etc.,
and the reply about it being a MSVC++ 97 thing (and not a problem on
MSVC++6.0), well I'm using MSVC++ 6.0 and am getting the same problem ...
did you find out what it was in the end? It'd save me the bother ...
could it be a UNIX / DOS <CR> insertion problem?

Thanks,
Cian.
