samba - May 2003 - Help on missing file libpopt.so.0

Hello every1:

I just installed samba2.2.8a package (SMCsamba) on Solaris 2.6 sparc box.  Upon
starting
up samba (/etc/init.d/samba.server start), I got a msg.  "ld.so.1:
/usr/local/samba/bin/smbd: fatal: libpopt.so.0: open failed: No such file or
directory
Killed
ld.so.1: /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd: fatal: libpopt.so.0: open failed: No such 
file or directory
Killed

Help is greatly appreciated.

I don't use solaris myself, but I remember this topic discussed on this
list before (try searching marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=samba).

You can download the package popt-1.7 for different versions of solaris on 
http://sunfreeware.com:
popt-1.7-sol26-sparc-local.gz The popt library is for parsing command line
options - installs in /usr/local.

It might be that you have to adjust the path where libraries are
searched for to include /usr/local.

HTH,
