ok; I'm also just looking at the ares lib and got it compiled; unfortunately I've no nameser.h yet on NetWare, so I used your one and that went fine; however this would require a couple of fixes in the files so that this nameser.h is included instead of arpa/nameser.h but everything else like Unix;

so two ways would be possible, or probably three:
- I ifdef everything with NETWARE so that there's no problem.
or:
- I replace every '#include </arpa/nameser.h>' with following to make it conditional:
#ifdef NO_ARPA_NAMESER_H
#include "nameser.h"
#else
#include </arpa/nameser.h>
#endif

and third:
- move nameser.h to a subdir missing/arpa
  then every platform which needs it can simply pick it up with a -I./missing in the INCLUDES,
  and no further changes to the sources needed;
  well perhaps some Win32 cleanups for the new location of the file...

Guenter.
