Thanks - cp the CP*.so files was helpful!
I assume that I can do a make install into a NFS root (example
/opt/rootfs) by using this
--prefix=/opt/rootfs/usr/local/samba
--exec-prefix=/opt/rootfs/usr/local/bin  ??

But how can I configure the build process so, that it notices the
facilities/libs/... of target system. I assume that it will with this:
"./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --build=i686"
it is unknown during build/configure process which libraries or
resources are available.

Is the fact, that I have to set
"export samba_cv_CC_NEGATIVE_ENUM_VALUES=0"
in advance a bug in the configure script or can I avoid the stop of
script in a other common way?

Sorry if this are beginners questions for most of you.

Regards
Arno
