Subject: Compiling "radius.db" - Need "gcc dbm compatibility library" (If it exits)

I am trying to compile "radius.db" under BSDI V2.1 using gcc, the
source includes "dbm.h" and gcc only offers "ndbm.h".  I called BSDI
tech support and they said that there may be "gcc dbm compatibility
libraries"  out there.  I am going to start hunting for it. If anyone
has ...

1. Compiled "radius.db" under BSDI V2.1 
2. Compiled "radius.db" with gcc
3. Knows of any "gcc dbm" compatibility libraries

Please let me know, I would really appreciate it.  I need to
authenticate a large user database and lookups are taking too long.
Putting the accounts into the database would speed things up
dramatically.

Thanks!
