Hello Collen!
I am actually making serious searchs in the configure script. Here
is WHATEVER i give as mysql input args, the compilation output:
Compiling passdb/secrets.c
Compiling passdb/machine_sid.c
Compiling locking/locking.c
Compiling locking/brlock.c
Compiling locking/posix.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_get_set.c
Compiling passdb/passdb.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_interface.c
Compiling passdb/util_sam_sid.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_compat.c
Compiling passdb/lookup_sid.c
Compiling passdb/login_cache.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_ldap.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_nds.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_smbpasswd.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_tdb.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_guest.c
Compiling passdb/pdb_sql.c
Compiling lib/system_smbd.c
As you can see here, nevermind if i ask for static, shared or
magic-cookied mysql plugin, it NEVER gets to compile it!
So there should be a misstake in some Makefile or rule file, the
problem is at compilation-time!
I will try to get the 3.0.11 from somewhere (I did not find it at
the link you gave me that is why i took 3.0.09).
Please, if you know somebody who can make the change in the makefile
scripts, tell me, or if i can get a way to compile pdb_mysql.c
alone, i'm interested too. I think now it is pointless to play
arround with configure script parametters, because it doesn't
propagate correctly directives to the compilation makefiles.
N.B.: The path to be given to the configure script seems to be the
path to mysql_config BINARY, in the configure script is made a call
to it with parametters to get the include path... So don't tell
anymore people to symlink if they have compiled from source, just
tell the configure script to ask the binary program "mysql_config"
(in configure script get the lines with $MYSQL_CONFIG
$mysqlconf_args --cflags | sed -e "s/'//g") ...
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help, i am a bit closer to find a
solution now!
I'll try tonight to get the v.11 and your advices in action :)
And, when you say if samba complains about not finding the plugin,
it does since the begining :O What chmod right 755 are you talking
about, i mean on what file?
Thanks!

--with-shared-modules=pdb_mysql -> compiles mysql backend
sepperate, you
will find a pdb_mysql.so module..
external is a little slower..
after this, you have to make sure to have set the parameters within
smb.conf!
also, make the mysql database with the samba layout (example is
included
with in the source!)
be sure samba can access the db.
if samba say's can't find plugin or somthing, just ignore it
(but besure
the chmod rights are ok 0755)
Goodluck.

Hello again Collen and everybody.
I just tryed to make 3.0.09 compile pdb_mysql with no success.
Can somebody please can tell me where to find the 3.0.11
version so i
can make it as Collen has it (Because i was not able to make
it with
3.0.14 default debian version, neither 3.0.09 neither 3.0.20
.. . doh!) ?
Thanks a lot.
