samba - Dec 2004 - Problems compiling samba with ldap in solaris 9

Hi All,

I get the following error compiling Samba 3.0.9 on Solaris 9. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using FLAGS =  -I/opt/local/kerberos/include -DHAS_LDAP  -Iinclude -
I/opt/software/samba/samba-3.0.9/source/include -I/opt/software/samba/samba-

make: *** [dynconfig.o] Error 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   I have installed openldap 2.2.17 and MIT kerberos 1.3.5. I run the 
following configuration command without errors:

 ./configure --prefix=/opt/local/samba --with-libiconv=/usr/local --with-ads --
with-krb5 --with-pam

  I have found the same error several times in the list, but nobody answers 
the problem.

Thanks.

Samba does compile just fine on Solaris 9 with openldap all the way up 
to 2.2.19 (just did it yesterday).  Here's what I do, since I couldn't 
quite get what I would have been looking for out of your description.

Openldap config:
./configure  --prefix=/opt/openldap-2.2.19 --disable-bdb --enable-crypt
I then make a link from /opt/openldap-version to /opt/openldap

I run the following commands to set env variables:

export FLAGS=-I/opt/openldap/include
export CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openldap/include
export LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openldap/lib
export CFLAGS="-I/opt/openldap/include"

Also, make sure that crle is sane:
crle -c /var/ld/ld.config -l /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/openldap/lib

Then this works fine
./configure --prefix=/opt/samba-3.0.9 --with-utmp --with-quotas 
--with-fhs --with-acl-support --with-automount --with-ldap
make
make install

Alter paths where necessary of course
