What directory were you in when you did "./configure" and "make"?  Go 
back to it, and it will have a subdirectory called plugingate, where you 
will find np_entry.cpp.  Based on your earlier post, it looks like that 
was ~/mplayerplug-in while you were root.  So it's in root's home 
directory, which is usually /root and accessible only by root.
