I believe I have the same problem, moreover from looking at this
newsgroup for the first time it seems to be a bit of a FAQ. I
wouldn't bother the group before trying to apply the proposed
solution, but ... my server is not Linux but Solaris 2.5, and I can't
see libdes.a anywhere. There's libcrypt.a, can it be used instead?
If yes, why isn't it enabled in the Makefile by default for this
platform?
Finally a meta question: what is the relationship between the
newsgroup and the mailing list, samba@samba.org? Is there an
automatic forward in either way? Which is the better place to post
Samba specific questions (I'd expect the newsgroup to be more general
in scope, covering eg. the Windows implementations of SMB).
I hope I can be forgiven for posting in both places this one time.
Best,
