Hi guys i keep getting this error while trying to compile
I know it has to do with one of the options while choosing configureations
i think it has something to do with ssl but not sure what it is,
i do hope someone knows this as i really want the test server to have as many options as possible. :?

isupport.o api-command.o url.o -lcrypt -lnsl -lz -lares -ldl -L/home/irctest/Unreal3.2/extras/regexp/lib -ltre -lssl -lcrypto
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lares
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [ircd] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/irctest/Unreal3.2/src'
make: *** [build] Error 2
[irctest@shells Unreal3.2]$

look

Um, no... it can't find the ares library, which you basically have to have.

Right, two possibilities (sounds like you want 1):
1. if you want remote includes please read INSTALL.REMOTEINC and follow these exact instructions (do not think "but I already have curl, it was installed by.. blablabla" NO.. READ it :P).
or:
2. Answer No to remote includes
