I'am trying to use the configure command with ldap and ads support. I get the following error: checking for LDAP support... auto checking ldap.h usability... yes checking ldap.h presence... yes checking for ldap.h... yes checking lber.h usability... yes checking lber.h presence... yes checking for lber.h... yes checking for ber_scanf in -llber... yes checking for ldap_init in -lldap... yes checking for ldap_set_rebind_proc... yes checking whether ldap_set_rebind_proc takes 3 arguments... 2 checking for ldap_dn2ad_canonical... no checking whether LDAP support is used... yes checking for Active Directory and krb5 support... auto checking for ldap_initialize... no configure: WARNING: Disabling Active Directory support (requires ldap_initialize) checking for ldap_add_result_entry... yes and in the config.log file following ERROR is reported: configure:35097: checking whether LDAP support is used configure:35099: result: yes configure:35122: checking for Active Directory and krb5 support configure:35136: result: auto configure:35164: checking for ldap_initialize configure:35221: gcc -o conftest -O -D_SAMBA_BUILD_ -I/usr/ldap/include -DLDAP_DEPRECATED -L/usr/ldap/lib -L/usr/ldap/lib/aix5 conftest.c -lldap -llber >&5 ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: ldap_initialize ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information. collect2: ld returned 8 exit status configure:35227: $? = 1 I did set the CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/ldap/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/ldap/lib -L/usr/ldap/aix5" Running AIX5.3 ML 4 installed krb5.client.rte 1.4.0.2 ldap.client.rte 5.2.0.0 ldap.client.adt 5.2.0.0 As you can see I want to make use of the standard AIX krb5 and ldap. Not de opensource.
We require the OpenLDAP libs for ADS support. Marking this as later (matbe) unless you have a patch.
Does this mean that samba is not going to work with the AIX LDAP implementation? Or does this mean it will be implemented in a future release. If so which release will that be.
There are no plans unless someone donates a patch that passes review.
