Trying to join a Solaris 8 box to Windows 2000 AD.

Sorry Andrew, I may have mislead you here. In the pre CVS version I tried
timegm would not compile under Solaris without changing timegm to mktime in
ldap.c. With the newer CVS version I have not made any mods to ldap.c (as
you stated earlier this was a bug that was fixed) and all compiled OK with
mods to the 
Configure commands as detailed earlier.
With the new CVS code unmodified timegm I get the Clock Skew problem. 
You say I have a 10+ hour problem, but where and how, and how can this be
rectified.?

TIA
Clive

Well, if you modified that function, then you probably now have a +10
hour problem in the time.  Samba uses the time the ldap server sends to
avoid time skew problems, hence having those timegm() functions in the
first place...
