To anyone who can help:

I have been trying to install the Win32 beta3 of PVM on a Windows NT
4.0 machine, and have run into several difficulties.

1.  The installation instructions at the Win32 homepage
(http://www.uni-paderborn.de/StaffWeb/getin/Projects.html) have an error in
the file, and
so I can't read them to find out how to do the installation.  And, when I
unzip the file containing the exe's, the exe's are contained in a
sub-directory
two levels deep, making me think my installation is not set up correctly.

2.  I am trying to build JavaPVM on my NT machine, which requires that 
I recompile some of the PVM source code.  However, the PVM source files 
seem to use a Unix style directory structure for system include files 
(ex:  files will have in the header, include src/*****.h).  However, on
NT's, this 
file structure for compilers is not really used.  I am using Visual C++
5.0, and 
so these includes simply give me errors, and I can't recompile the files. 

Has anyone had any similar problems and found any solutions??

Thanks in advance.
