map.txt is only documentation. The list of DCC servers is in /var/dcc/map.
The single question mark suggests that the homedir/Makefile failed
to build /var/dcc/map as well as /var/dcc/map.txt
/var/dcc/map is generated by the homedir/Makefile using something
very much like this script:
PASSWD=`ps|cksum|tr ' ' 'x'`
umask 077; touch $(DCC_PROTO_HOMEDIR)/map.txt
sed -e "/^localhost/s/secret1/$$PASSWD/" map.txt \
| ${DEPTH}/cdcc/cdcc -qh $(DCC_PROTO_HOMEDIR) 'load -; info' \
>$(DCC_PROTO_HOMEDIR)/map.txt
It would be interesting to try that script to see what happens.
Is there any chance that your system does not have the `cksum` command?
Was the cdcc command not built?
The point of the complication of the script is to generate reasonable
secret password for the client-ID.
To simply get your system running, it should be enough to use
cdcc load - </what/ever/homedir/map.txt
where /what/ever/homedir/map.txt is the map.txt file in the source.
