AS Number filtering

So, when you compile the client programs, what does one of the compile command lines look like:

   % cd examples/ralabel
   % make clean
   % make

There should be a “ -L/usr/local/lib -lGeoIP “ section in there, or the path that ./configure
thinks is suppose to work.  If so, do you have the correct file ???

   % ls -la /usr/local/lib/*GeoIP*

Then if all looks good, you probably don’t have /usr/local/bin in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

   % export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

You’ll want to add this to your .bashrc  startup file.
