Yes, I think this should do. Both "configure" and "configure.in" do
contain a section
# Initially, the value of $host_os decides whether winbind is supported
case "$host_os" in
*linux*|*solaris*|*irix*)
HAVE_WINBIND=yes
;;
*)
HAVE_WINBIND=no
winbind_no_reason=", unsupported on $host_os"
;;
esac
$host_os resolves to "hppa1.1-hp-hpux11.00" on my box, thus I
suppose changing the test to
*linux*|*solaris*|*irix*|*hpux11*)
should do the trick.
However, even then the winbind shared objects will not be
installed correctly by "make install", as they need to be
renamed and moved to
/usr/lib/libnss_winbind.1
/usr/lib/security/libpam_winbind.1
But that's not too hard to be done manually, for the moment :-)
Cheers!
