libsmapi.so & libsmapi.so.2.5 were already in /usr/local/lib as links.  libsmapi.so.2.5.0 wasn't so I made a symbolic link for that one as well.

libsmapi.a wasn't there either, I found it in ~/husky/smapi/Build & copied that over:

But still the same message about missing the smapi/msgapi.h file:

/tmp/smapinntpd/src$ make linux
make -f Makefile.linux
make[1]: Entering directory '/tmp/smapinntpd/src'
gcc  -Wall -Wno-pointer-sign -DPLATFORM_LINUX -D__PROGPROT_H__ -c main.c -o main.o
In file included from main.c:1:

compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [Makefile.linux:37: main.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/smapinntpd/src'

I notice that I have smapi 2.5 which doesn't include the smapi/progprot.h file also referenced in nntpserv.h, but it is there in the smapi-2.2.4-src.tar.gz archive I downloaded.
