[Samba] Need help compiling Samba on Solaris

[Gaiseric Vandal]

Sort of compiled?  Does that mean some options didn't compile?

I was able to compile samba 3.4.x. (as you point out, it requires 
tinkering with the CPPFLAGS etc.)    The latest OpenLDAP from 
sunfreeware should be fine (plus its dependencies, which are listed.)   
Presumably you are using GCC from Sunfreeware?  The Solaris kerberos 
should be fine.

nsswitch source is in a separate directory

.../samba-3.4.8/nsswitch not .../samba-3.4.8/source3

you may need to compile separately.

I see your other post.   3.0.37 generally worked for me except for 
interdomain trusts.  I know it wouldn't work with Windows 7 but that 
wasn't an issue for me at the time.

(Again, I repeat complain about Sun abandoning samba and not moving 
before 3.0.x-  which is will be useless one you need to support Windows 7.)
