ok so I made a new user and made his home directory /home/coffey522 and made him owner of it. This is what I used to setup sbnc:

Quote:
wget http://mirror.shroudbnc.info/sbnc-1.2.tar.gz
tar -zxf sbnc-1.2.tar.gz
./configure
make
make install


They all seem to work, but when I type ./configure I get these errors near the end:

now when you try running sbnc for the first time after it's been intalled it asks you some questions like what port it's going to run on and the first users details, but the configure process stops completely after I type in the users password.

I don't know whats wrong, never had these problems before :o and I'm using Debian 5

Why not use http://packages.debian.org/lenny/sbnc?

Coffey522, try to update autoconf and automake then rebuild sbnc.
By the way, you should ask on the sbnc forum

I second this. Using your distro's package will allow you to get automatic updates when a newer version comes out that might fix some critical security flaw, or an annoying bug, saving you from having to track this yourself.
