Thanks a bunch, Carter,

It seems I've run into yet another problem.

I compiled and installed libGeoIP, and confirmed it's location in
/usr/local/lib/

I did a ./configure --with-GeoIP=yes

./configure --with-GeoIP=yes | fgrep -i geoip

checking for GeoIP_open in -lGeoIP... yes
and checked the argus_config header:

# fgrep ARGUS_GEOIP include/argus_config.h

#define ARGUS_GEOIP /**/

But i'm getting the following error:

# ralabel -D 3 -f /etc/ralabel.conf -r argus.out -s stime sas das -N 10

ralabel: error while loading shared libraries: libGeoIP.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory


Thanks for the help so far!


-james
