(you should stop any other DBMS running on this machine on port 1234) Edit the file 'arch.conf' for any platform specific things, in particular the location od your db1/db2 libraries on linux. Type: make; make test; make install; By default the dbmsd get installed under the /RDFStore branch NOTE for Linux or no-BSD platforms: ---------------------------------- The dbmsd(8) TCP/IP deamon code is actually under development and has only been tested on FreeBSD platforms using old Berkeley DB 1.x style interface. Most Linux distributions today come with newer BerkeleyDB >>1.85 (2.x or better) bundled installations and db185 compatibility API and code compiled in. To properly compile dbmsd(8) you must have libdb1 and db_185.h properly installed on your machine. Then edit the deamon/Makefile (LIBS = -ldb1) and compile the package. If you can not get it to compile, do not disperate and try to use BerkleyDB, DB_File or SDBM_File styles instead :-)
