Can anyone share a how-to for solaris?

Here's some general NUT-on-Solaris information:

Can't vouch for that specifically - I haven't used Solaris in years, and had a 
hard time getting OpenSolaris working back when that was an option. That said, 
we might be able to reach out to someone at Eaton to see how they set up the 
Buildbot slave for NUT.

What errors are you getting? How are you installing the SNMP support packages?

I thought I'd see if I could first get it to work without snmp support. I've started with a basic Solaris install and added the following packages from sunfreeware
  libiconv-1.14-sol10-sparc-local
  gcc-3.4.6-sol10-sparc-local
  make-3.82-sol10-sparc-local
  libintl-3.4.0-sol10-sparc-local

Working from Mike Nowak's notes at:
  https://blogs.oracle.com/mikey/entry/network_ups_tools_on_solaris

./configure --prefix=/opt/nut --with-statepath=/var/ups --with-user=ups 
--with-group=ups

returns alright, but the subsequent "make" fails with:
make[1]: Entering directory `/opt/downloads/nut-2.6.5/common'
/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC   --mode=link gcc -I../include -g -O2 -Wall 
-Wsign-compare   -o libparseconf.la  parseconf.lo  -lrt -lsocket -lnsl
libtool: link: false cru .libs/libparseconf.a .libs/parseconf.o
make[1]: *** [libparseconf.la] Error 1

But at this point I don't know if I have some library in the wrong location, or if the makefile is being told to look in the wrong location, or something else entirely.
