Adding -lnsl to the ARS_LIBS makefile.pl worked like a charm. Many thanks.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thilo Stapff Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 4:16 PM To: ARSperl User Discussion Subject: Re: [Arsperl-users] Compiling ARS perl on AIX I'm no AIX expert, but according to Google, "xdr_sizeof" and "__rpc_createerr" are symbols from libnsl. So the first thing I would try is to append "-lnsl" to the $ARS_LIBS variable in Makefile.PL. This was included for earlier versions of the ARS API (see the "if ($ARSVERSION >= ...)" blocks in Makefile.PL), but has been removed for version >= 6.3 (I don't know why). The next step would be to verify if there is a libnsl.a installed on your system and if ld is able to find it.
