Rogge, I did as you said and compiled 0.6.1 for Windows using Cygwin.I did
change a couple of minor things though:
In main.c line 88 removed one backslash [Two backslashes just seemed wrong]
In main.c line 133 changed if(noenoExitOnFail) to if(noExitOnFail) [Compile
time error]

Compiled fine,got an exe and a bunch of dlls.Put all of them in a folder and
ran olsrd.exe.Problem is when the scheduler starts, it goes into an infinite
loop giving the error "select error:Result too large'. So opened the
scheduler.c file and tried figuring out the error,but am completely at sea
here,since I dont know what the scheduler does and how it fits in with the
rest of the code. Does anyone on the list have any idea as to what's causing
this? A brief summary as to what the scheduler does and I could try fixing
it myself.
