ohio,

I am trying to build DeleGate on Centos 4.3 x86. During the configuration it 
tries to link and cannot find "socket()". I get the error output below. 
However, there is no /usr/lib/libsocket.so (there *is* /usr/lib/libnsl.so) 
and I think modern Linux distributions don't support -lsocket. But I don't 
know enough about what to do. Perhaps I am missing a version of the standard 
C/++ library that contains socket support?

Any help would be appreciated, apologies for my lack of Linux knowledge!

sincerely,
-Jon.
