Did you recompile hpt (as well as everything else) to use the dynamic libraries? I believe once you change those two settings in huskymak.cfg you can just run "Build.sh" again to recompile everything. I was under the assumption that you only cloned the smapi portion of the husky project and had nothing else. If you're using the whole project, you probably have to rebuild it all. Sorry.

Which version of Jamnntpd are you trying this with? 1.3?
Did you remember to create the 4th jam base file that Jamnntpd doesn't do?

To be honest, and no offense to the guy (and RIP), but once RJ took it over from Johan it seems like he broke more than he fixed. I had luck in the past with Johan's original version (v1.0), but I moved away from that quite some time ago.

Regards,
Nick
