[Samba] configure fails to detect OpenLDAP on AIX - bug 10047

[Peter Waeckerle]

Hello

I see this bug exactly describes the problem we have. But there is no
activity in it since last august...

Could someone of the samba-team please comment on it?

My last successful build was with samba 4.0.3. Since then there are many
security patches released and people are starting to get a bit nervous ;- )

Samba is running as a AD member, acting as fileserver only. User
authentication is done by another AD server:

[global]
workgroup = europe
netbios name = ch-x-12345
name resolve order = host bcast
browsable = yes
auto services = homes
security = ADS
client use spnego = yes
ldap ssl = no
encrypt passwords = yes
load printers = no
realm = europe.xxxx.com
local master = no
domain master = no
...

I'm just setting up a clean new build environment on AIX 7.1 with xlc only
(without any rpms from bullfreeware, perzl etc). I have time and capacity
to work on this, but I do need help as I don't know about the internals of
samba (yet ;- ).


Thanks and regards

 Peter
