[NTLUG:Discuss] fuse and owfs

[Fred James]

All
I am trying to install/configure 'fuse' and 'owfs' (from tarballs) on a 
Mandrake 9.1 Linux system.  'fuse' seems to install correctly, and then 
I have added '/usr/local/lib' to both '/etc/ld.so.conf' and to 'PATH'.  
But './configure' (for 'owfs') shows 'owfs' as disabled, and both 
'owhttpd' and 'owftpd' as enabled - the exact opposite of what I need.  
I know how to disable the two, but I haven't been able to get 'owfs' 
enabled.  I am reading, but so far I haven't found anything that makes 
any lights go on.  Any pointers, URL's, etc., would be greatly 
appreciated.  Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to offer.
Regards
Fred James
