I am using the protocol snip located here:

https://github.com/Xavious/MSDP_Protocol_Handler

following the smaug instructions. I am seeing these errors:

protocol.c: In function ‘protocol_t* ProtocolCreate()’:

was hopeful someone had done this on smaugfuss and could assist

down to linking issues.

ok here's the update.. i finally got it to compile... everything looking good.. .no warnings...

I boot up the mud... I get the greeting and a new line that says "MXP Enabled"

but..... I can't send any commands... my name, password... nothing lol

edit: I have re-traced all the steps and I did not miss anything that it asked me for. Anyone ever run into this?

sounds like you might have an issue in your interpret or reading from the input. best thing to do is pick a spot and toss in checks to see if it is getting the input etc...

ok update: There was an instruction in there to change "every instance of d->inbuf to read_buf"... apparently I took that literally and read_from_buffer do NOT need these changes. It is working now that I changed read_from_buffer back.
