samba - Feb 2004 - dependent module libiconv.a (libiconv.so.2) could not be loaded. .......error starting smbd on AIX v5.1

Hello,

I am getting the following error when I attempt to run smbclient   or when I
attempt to start smbd on AIX 5.1:

      ".....could not load program  /usr/local/sbin/smbd"
                 Dependent module  /usr/lib/libiconv.a (libiconv.so.2) could
not be loaded.
                Member libiconv.so.2  is not found in archive


This module appears to exist in     bos.rte.iconv      and when I do
"lslpp -l | grep iconv"   I get:

        bos.iconv.com             5.1.0.50  COMMITTED  Common Language to
Language
        bos.iconv.ucs.com       5.1.0.50  COMMITTED  Unicode Base Converters
for
        bos.rte.iconv                5.1.0.25  COMMITTED  Language
Converters


Does anyone have a way out of this?     I noticed that I am not the only one
having this problem.
Please help........thanks very much.   Dean Obry
