There are two good ways to run a keyserver.  If you are planning on
syncing your internal keyserver with the outside world, then SKS is
for you.  If you are having problems building it, ask on the SKS
mailing list at http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/sks-devel

If you are not planning to sync with the outside world, then may I
suggest using LDAP?  Many sites already have a LDAP server, and GnuPG
will quite happily use it as a keyserver.  The LDAP schema for OpenPGP
keys is at http://asteria.noreply.org/~weasel/PGPKeyserverSchema.zip
