[Sks-devel] Running SKS under Windows

[Dahlke, Axel]

Hello,

I am trying to get SKS running under Windows XP, because it is the only
OS I have access to.
We'd like to encrypt our *internal* mail from our Human Resource
Management 
(along with any other mails concerning payroll) with GnuPG, but have
some reservations 
about publishing the public-keys on the internet, because they
would be accessible for spammers.

What I have done so far:

1)
- Installed the latest Cygwin-Release with the Berkeley-DB and OCaml
Packages.
- Running "make dep" for SKS under Cygwin results in a
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION:
  ocamldep -pp camlp4o   *.ml *.mli > .depend
  Signal 11
  make: *** [dep] Error 139

  I dont't know, if this is a OCaml or Cygwin problem.
- I even compiled Ocaml and Berkeley-DB from scratch to no avail

2)
- Installed the Ocaml Windows-Binaries from http://caml.inria.fr
- Downloaded the Berkeley-DB from http://www.sleepycat.com and compiled
it
  with MSVC 6.0
- tried to run Microsofts nmake.exe with the SKS Makefile, but nmake
complains about
  syntaxerros in Makefile:
  NMAKE Fatal Error U1034
  syntax error : separator missing
  The colon (:) that separates targets and dependents is missing.

I am not familiar with the internal structure of makefiles (hey, I'm a
Windoze user ;-) ), 
so I would appreciate any help regarding this matter.
