./configure --prefix=`pwd`/usr/local/ make install Andreas would be the best person to explain how it works in samba. (He is on PTO). Here are files which I was able to find in samba source code selftest/selftest.pl selftest/target/Samba.pm selftest/target/Samba4.pm LS _______________________________________________ sssd-devel mailing list sssd-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
