Solaris 10 (with latest patches) should have samba 3.0.37 already included.

"smbd -b" indicates it was built with ADS support. I don't know if it really works reliably or not, since I am not integrating with active directory.

Sunfreeware.com samba did not include either zfs or nsswitch support. Also, Sunfreeware samba uses openldap while Sun's samba uses the OS ldap functionality.

I found compiling Samba on Solaris to be quite a challenge. I did get EVENTUALLY get 3.4.8 compiled but not 3.5.2. I had to symlink /usr/ccs/bin/ld to gld. I also used gcc not Sun cc.

It seems pretty obvious to me that Sun will not be doing any more work with Samba since they have an alternative CIFS ("Windows") server product now.

Hi,



I am trying to configure samba 3.0.21b with ads support on Solaris 10 U5
SPARC.

./configure is failing with the following error.

Error:

     LIBS = -lresolv -lnsl -lsocket  -liconv

Prabu,

Any reason you are using that version?  Not only is the latest 3.0.x
3.0.37 but it is discontinued and will no longer get security updates, etc:
  http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Release_Planning_for_Samba_3.0

I would at least look at 3.4.x or 3.5.x
(http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba3_Release_Planning).

You could also use the sunfreeware packages to eliminate the pain of
compiling or use it as a reference of what libraries you would want:

Thanks,
Robert
