I am a Mac OS X.2 user and I'm not completely familiar with Darwin Unix but I have come upon a need to install Samba 3.0.4 on a PPC G4. I Have an install manual that came with Apple Developers package and I followed the directions. The manual told me to run this command: ./configure --with-syslog --prefix=/etc/samba \ --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/etc/samba --mandir=/usr/share/man This Generated an immense amount of information some interesting lines include: configure: WARNING: rpcsvc/yp_prot.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: rpcsvc/yp_prot.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: rpcsvc/yp_prot.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result and configure: WARNING: net/if.h: present but cannot be compiled configure: WARNING: net/if.h: check for missing prerequisite headers? configure: WARNING: net/if.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result and configure: WARNING: Sufficient support for iconv function was not found. Install libiconv from http://freshmeat.net/projects/libiconv/ for better charset compatibility! these did not result in a final error message so I followed the next step to type the following command make when I do this the following is the result in the terminal Using FLAGS = -O -I./popt -Iinclude -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/include -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/ubiqx -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/smbwrapper -I. -I/sw/include -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source LIBS LDSHFLAGS = -bundle -flat_namespace -undefined suppress -L/sw/lib LDFLAGS = -L/sw/lib Compiling libsmb/clikrb5.c libsmb/clikrb5.c:139: #error UNKNOWN_GET_ENCTYPES_FUNCTIONS libsmb/clikrb5.c:123: illegal external declaration, missing `;' after `__ERROR_XX_UNKNOWN_CREATE_KEY_FUNCTIONS' libsmb/clikrb5.c:188: undefined type, found `krb5_krbhst_handle' libsmb/clikrb5.c:189: undefined type, found `krb5_krbhst_info' cpp-precomp: warning: errors during smart preprocessing, retrying in basic mode make: *** [libsmb/clikrb5.o] Error 1 [John-P-Kordik-Jrs-Computer:samba/samba-3.0.4/source] andy# make Using FLAGS = -O -I./popt -Iinclude -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/include -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/ubiqx -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source/smbwrapper -I. -I/sw/include -I/Users/andy/samba/samba-3.0.4/source LIBS LDSHFLAGS = -bundle -flat_namespace -undefined suppress -L/sw/lib LDFLAGS = -L/sw/lib Compiling libsmb/clikrb5.c libsmb/clikrb5.c:139: #error UNKNOWN_GET_ENCTYPES_FUNCTIONS libsmb/clikrb5.c:123: illegal external declaration, missing `;' after `__ERROR_XX_UNKNOWN_CREATE_KEY_FUNCTIONS' libsmb/clikrb5.c:188: undefined type, found `krb5_krbhst_handle' libsmb/clikrb5.c:189: undefined type, found `krb5_krbhst_info' cpp-precomp: warning: errors during smart preprocessing, retrying in basic mode make: *** [libsmb/clikrb5.o] Error 1 If I have omitted any info that may be relevant let me know. thanks for the help Thanks Andrew
