You need build miniupnp first.
Read file "build-unix.txt" in namecoin source dir
for namecoin build requirements.

I give up, too many errors for me. Maybe someone will post a complete install guide...

root@nmcpc:/usr/local/miniupnpd-1.5.20110528# make -f Makefile.linux install
cc -Wall -Os -D_GNU_SOURCE -fno-strict-aliasing -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o netfilter/iptcrdr.o netfilter/iptcrdr.c
netfilter/iptcrdr.c:17:22: fatal error: iptables.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [netfilter/iptcrdr.o] Error 1
root@nmcpc:/usr/local/miniupnpd-1.5.20110528#

Take a walk and have some coffee. Namecoin is worth the effort.

I'll help by offering 1 BTC to the first person to write a complete Namecoin installation guide.

i am trying to get the client running on windows, but i am running into some problems

I followed steps 1-4 of the guide http://dot-bit.org/InstallAndConfigureNamecoin

After starting Namecoind.exe the dos box displays the following message.

"Bitcoin: Warning: Please check that you computer's data and time are correct. If your clock is wrong bitcoin will not start properly"

i changed my date and time settings to English (US); no effect

-running Windows 7 32 Bit
-Bitcoin client is starting and running without a problem

debug.log is full of messages

-connecting to IRC
-downloading stuff...

the dos box never allows me to add commands, therefore i cannot complete the remaining steps

I'm assuming there's a similar command to send namecoins?

Is there some decent documentation on the commands that go with namecoin/bitcoin on the command line?

May Bitcoin be touched by his Noodly Appendage

If there's still a problem with Diablo, you should try poclbm, worked fine for me. It took about 20 minutes to download the blockchain

To see namecoin address and amount on it : ./namecoind listreceivedbyaddress 0 true

Yep, I tried running Diablo against it, and it keeps saying:

[6/9/11 6:25:03 PM] ERROR: Can't connect to Bitcoin: Bitcoin returned error message: Bitcoin is downloading blocks...

But, it is also providing me with a hashing rate, which doesn't seem to make much sense...

I wanted to try this out, but I could use a little help.

I downloaded the Mac Binary, but since it appears to be console only, how can I tell once namecoind has finished downloading the namecoin blockchain?

Run a miner with your server, it will download the blockchain and then tell you when it's done

Does this interfere with a bitcoin installation in any way, or is it 100% separate?

They should run separately since they are different ports. There have been reports of people sending bitcoins to namecoin addresses and vice versa and apparently the client did not protest .... so be careful. Extracting namecoins from bitcoin wallets and vice versa would not be for the faint of heart.

So they use different installation directories, different 'appdata' directories, different copies (if any) of libeay32.dll... i.e. Installation and use are 100% separate?

I wasn't sure how much this relied on a bitcoin installation, if at all... I suppose that you could use Namecoins even if you have never installed or used bitcoin?

I guess it's the phrase 'based on Bitcoin' that has me asking all this.

You should be able to run namecoin on a machine that has never had bitcoin on it, yes. Doesn't rely on a bitcoin install at all. (Never done it on windows though).

"Based on" is a bad term, they mean to say it uses the same block chain technology, with an extension to include naming transactions, including but not limited to, domain naming.
