openssh unix dev - Feb 2005 - ssh client Symbol getpeereid (number 34) is not exported from dependent module /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o).

Hello

I've Compiled openssh 3.9.p1 on AIX 5.2:

<source Dir>/contrib/findssl.sh
Searching for OpenSSL header files.
0x009060dfL /opt/freeware/include/openssl/opensslv.h

Searching for OpenSSL shared library files.

Searching for OpenSSL static library files.
0x009060dfL /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a
0x009060dfL /opt/freeware/64/lib/libcrypto.a
0x009060dfL /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.a
0x009060dfL /usr/linux/lib/libcrypto.a


blibpath=/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/freeware/lib
export blibpath


./configure --with-ssl-dir=/opt/freeware --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh \
--with-zlib=/usr/local --with-ipaddr-display

On the same Machine my ssh client works.
If i transfer the bynaries to another Machine ( same openssl Version ) then
i have the following Error:

# ssh
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program ssh because of the following errors:
        0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for ssh because:
        0509-136   Symbol getpeereid (number 34) is not exported from
                   dependent module /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o).
        0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
                 'dump -Tv' command.


Can anybody help me ?

Kind Regards

You have probably compiled OpenSSH on a newer version of AIX (either major 
release or maintenance level) than the machine you're trying to run it on. 
  In general, AIX is forward but not backward compatible so you should 
compile on the oldest version (including ML) you plan to support.  (I 
believe this applies to all binaries not just OpenSSH.)

To get around this particular problem, you can edit config.h and comment 
out the line "#define HAVE_GETPEEREID 1" (after running configure but 
before running make) and rebuilding.  It's possible you might see similar 
problems with other functions, though.
