OK did this and also it's compiled.

I'm not sure about the next bit.

 Binkd is successfully compiled.

 If you want to install Binkd files into /usr/local
     1. Run `make -n install' to be sure this makefile will
        do not something criminal during the installation;
     2. `su' to root;
     3. Run `make install' to install Binkd.
     4. Edit /usr/local/etc/binkd.conf-dist and RENAME it or
        MOVE it somewhere (so another `make install' will
        not overwrite it during your next Binkd upgrade)

 If you want to put the files into some other directory just
 run `configure --prefix=/another/path' and go to step 1.

I want to have all my binkd files in a dir like /hub/binkd  

What's the best way to run the steps above (install stage?) so I can get the
installer to put the files where I want them

would I just re-run ./configure with all your switches and add
--prefix=/hub/binkd as well then run 'make' and then ??
