# wget http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent-1.2.tar.gz

# tar ZXVF libevent-1.2.tar.gz

# CD libevent-1.2

#./CONFIGURE–PREFIX=/USR

# make

# make Install

3. Test whether the Libevent is installed successfully:

# Ls-al/usr/lib | grep libevent

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 11?? 17:38 libevent-1.2.so.1-> libevent-1.2.so.1.0.3

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 263546 11?? 17:38 libevent-1.2.so.1.0.3

-rw-r–r–1 root root 454156 11?? 17:38 LIBEVENT.A

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 811 11?? 17:38 libevent.la

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 11?? 17:38 libevent.so-> libevent-1.2.so.1.0.3
