OpenKiosk on Kubuntu

[webray]

Hi ..

i'm trying to build up a small internetcafe with OpenKiosk (http://openkiosk.sourceforge.net/).
The server "NodeView 2.0.3" is still running. I made some changes to the configure-script. There were some hardcoded paths. For more details to the server .. just ask

But the problem is now the client-tool "opkdekiosk2.0.6". I tried to install it on a fresh Kubuntu 6.06. My steps:

1. ./configure (it works)
2. make (also no problems)
3. make install (this step aborted with the following error-message):

1 	/usr/bin/install -c -p -m 644 ./kioskclientrc /usr/local/kde/share/config/kioskclientrc
2 	/usr/bin/install: reguläre Datei "/usr/local/kde/share/config/kioskclientrc" kann nicht angelegt werden: No such file or directory
3 	make[3]: *** [install-data-local] Fehler 1
4 	make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/michael/tools/opkdekiosk-2.0.6/opkdekiosk/kiosksetup'
5 	make[2]: *** [install-am] Fehler 2
6 	make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/michael/tools/opkdekiosk-2.0.6/opkdekiosk/kiosksetup'
7 	make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Fehler 1
8 	make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/michael/tools/opkdekiosk-2.0.6/opkdekiosk'
9 	make: *** [install-recursive] Fehler 1

For testing purposes i've done a "mkdir config" manually (/usr/local/kde/share/config). Then i've done a "make install" and there were no errors. But at the end the client "opkdekiosk" does not work. I could start the tool, but i couldn't save any preferences (server-ip-address, client-name ...). I tried it also with "./configure --prefix=/usr". But that also doesnt solve the problem.

I found the config-dir in my home dir "/home/michael/.kde/share/config" Do i have to install tools like this in my personal .kde-dir ?

now ... i need your help.
greetings,
webray

YES, please

i am trying to install NodeView 2.0.3 server on my Kubuntu 6.10. I am pretty sure I have both the Berkeley DB and the Qt, and still the configure script tells me I am short..

can you send me your configure file, or point where should I modify the paths..
thanks
