Could anyone help resolving the following compile errors please:-

./../tnm/generic/tnmSunRpc.c: In function `SunrpcRstat':
./../tnm/generic/tnmSunRpc.c:449: warning: passing arg 5 of `callrpc' from
incompatible pointer type

If the compiler uses the word "warning", than it usually means that it
is a warning and not an error. Don't worry too much about warnings -
some of them are unavoidable (since I am not going to put #ifdef's in
the code to make broken tools happy - note that rpcgen on many systems
does no create correct prototypes which is a bug in rpcgen and not
really my problem.)

You final make step fails because the configure script did not figure
out to call the linker - which is again very obvious. There is no
way to remotely figure out what happened to you configure run. You
have to track this down yourself.
