Failure to build home-made package on WINDOWS 2000 professional

Dear all,

I am trying to build a home-made package (log2html) to
log R output to an HTML file. The package can be build
successfully under Solaris, however I am unable to build
the system under Windows 2000 Professional.

I read (and tried to follow to the letter) Duncan Murdoch's
"Building R for Windows" (http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/),
in combination with the newest version of R (2.3.1), yet when
doing this I receive the following message while compiling the
system:

    > R CMD check log2html

    * checking for working latex ...latex: not found  NO
    * using log directory 'D:/tmp/log2html.Rcheck'
    * using Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01)
    * checking for file 'log2html/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
    * checking extension type ... Package
    * this is package 'log2html' version '1.0-1'
    * checking package dependencies ... OK
    * checking if this is a source package ... OK
    * checking whether package 'log2html' can be installed ... ERROR
    Installation failed.
    See 'D:/tmp/log2html.Rcheck/00install.out' for details.

In the file D:/tmp/log2html.Rcheck/00install.out are the following
messages:
    installing R.css in H:/tmp/log2html.Rcheck
    '.' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
    '.' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable

    make: *** /log2html: No such file or directory.  Stop.
    make: *** [pkg-log2html] Error 2
    *** Installation of log2html failed ***
    Removing 'D:/tmp/log2html.Rcheck/log2html'

Can anybody provide me with hints how to solve this
problem?

Kind regards,
