Hi Dave, The problem with MacOS-X is that it doesn't have a UNIX file-system and things like the header-file <sys/statvfs.h> don't conform to the UNIX standard. I can probably port the LDM to MacOS-X, but I'll have to investigate first and it'll probably take some work (I can't say how much). --Steve Emmerson NOTE: All email exchanges with Unidata User Support are recorded in the Unidata inquiry tracking system and then made publically available through the web.

'make' failed with: -c -O -I../config -I../ulog fsStats.c fsStats.c: In function `fsStats': fsStats.c:64: error: `STRUCT_STATFS' undeclared (first use in this function) fsStats.c:64: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once fsStats.c:64: error: for each function it appears in.) fsStats.c:64: error: parse error before "sbuf" fsStats.c:67: error: `sbuf' undeclared (first use in this function) make[2]: *** [fsStats.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [subdir_target] Error 1 make: *** [misc/all] Error 2 Please send Dave a response on the possibility of LDM working on MacOS-X.
