[Samba] Trouble building Samba 2.2.5 of Solaris 9

If my memory doesn't fail me, then you need to specify -linet with
Solaris. Try man inet_aton, there should be a usage there that shows how
to compile with. Unfortunately I don't have access to a Solaris machine
right now to verify this.

Looks like inet_aton has cropped up again, in libsmbclient.c:
 
if (!inet_aton(server, &rem_ip)) {
  DEBUG(4, ("Could not convert IP address %s to struct in_addr\n",
server));
  errno = ENOENT;
  return NULL;
}
 
This function doesn't exist in Solaris, and causes this shared library
to fail to link, when called by other programs (notably KDE 3):
 
Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file
inet_aton                           /usr/local/samba/lib/libsmbclient.so
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to conftest
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
 
Any ideas for a fix?
 
Thanks!
