Hello List,
I'm not too up on my Unix programming as I should be, but having just
re-compiled the nsswitch directory on a Solaris 2.6 box, it would seem that
the winbind_nss_solaris.c source file is never compiled into
libnss_winbind.so - could this be why the module does not work on Solaris?
If this isn't compiled, I can only presume that the module does not show the
correct interface to the Solaris nsswitch subsystem, and therefore Solaris
can't call anything within it (?).
Cheers,
Dean Ward
