Description cartman 2004-07-20 02:40:53 UTC 
The file ./samba-3.0.4/source/nsswitch/winbind_nss_aix.c
contains reference to the following line:
     methods->method_version = SECMETHOD_VERSION_520;
which only exists on AIX 5.2. Attempting to compile under AIX 5.1 or earlier 
causes this compile to fail. To resolve I simply commented out this line. I 
suggest wrapping this line in a #ifdef viz:

#ifdef SECMETHOD_VERSION_520
     methods->method_version = SECMETHOD_VERSION_520;
#endif

Fixed - thanks!

Someone should find out what the method_version field actually does and
determine if it needs filling in for other versions of AIX.

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
