Actually... I have done it differently, I just included -lshadow in the
#LIBS, and also I have included the file <shadow.h>.. and that did the
trick, not much harder than that.. It just I think I have shadow-3.2, and
its like 3 years old or something like that.. so I was wondering maybe
you know where to get the latest one and if it was worth it..
P.s. I am sorry about the last question which is totally unrelated...
