I've just installed /usr/ports/net/Sockets and cant link against libSockets 
that it produced.

Having fetched a some of the demo files from 
http://www.alhem.net/Sockets/tutorial/ I then try to compile:

c++ -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=athlon-xp -g -I/usr/local/include/Sockets -c 
DisplaySocket.cpp
c++ -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=athlon-xp -g -I/usr/local/include/Sockets -c 
displayserver.cpp
c++ -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -march=athlon-xp -g -I/usr/local/include/Sockets -L/usr/local/lib -lpthread -lSockets -lSocketsEx -pthread -o 
displayserver DisplaySocket.o displayserver.o
DisplaySocket.o(.text+0x15): In function 
`DisplaySocket::DisplaySocket(SocketHandler&)':
/home/ian/devel/snake/server/test/DisplaySocket.cpp:8: undefined reference to 
`TcpSocket::TcpSocket(SocketHandler&)'
DisplaySocket.o(.text+0x45): In function 
`DisplaySocket::DisplaySocket(SocketHandler&)':
/home/ian/devel/snake/server/test/DisplaySocket.cpp:8: undefined reference to 
`TcpSocket::TcpSocket(SocketHandler&)

And a lot more similar errors. It looks like it can't find libSockets, is this 
right? Why not?
How do I make it work.

ll /usr/local/lib/libSockets*
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   2.8M Jul  1 11:04 /usr/local/lib/libSockets.a
-r--r--r--  1 root  wheel   514K Jul  1 11:04 /usr/local/lib/libSocketsEx.a

Any help much appreciated.
