All,

As per the subject I'm trying [unsuccessfully!] to build Samba 3.0.1 on
an Open Server 5.0.6 system.

The system has 'gcc' installed, and configure decided to use that -
which is fine with me, unless you think different :-)

This is where things went horribly wrong...

Alternatively, if someone wants to save me all this trouble - does
anyone know of a pre-built binary distribution? (Yeah, yeah.. I know
Samba & SCO in the same sentence can provoke a more political
discussion these days).

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Stuart.

Never tried personally (and I'm not in the position to check now) but do
you have the

/usr/include/limits.h

file installed on your system ?

If not (but this __might__ be only an useless workaround), try by adding
the following in one of the samba's include file:

#ifndef PATH_MAX
#define PATH_MAX 1024
#endif

No, please, not today ! :-)

Yes, that's already there...

However, the PATH_MAX is defined as 256 not 1024. I've tried changing
it to 1024, but exactly the same thing happens unfortunately.

It is actually building the 'smbd' and 'nmbd' executables -
unfortunately they don't appear to work.

What version of Samba does 5.0.7 come preinstalled with?

Thanks,

Stuart.

Are you in the position to check if the above actually gets included
into the *.c file ?

Also, what if you put the above "define" statements into the client.c file ?

It's not a matter of value; it's a "I can't find the PATH_MAX
definition" issue.

Samba 2.2.6 (as per the CD label).

Samba does not come pre-installed on SCO, there is the skunkware
site which currently (last time I heard) had 2.2.6, which from
reports I have heard has some issues on SCO).

I have several sites that have 2.0.7 which worked without
issue. 2.2.8a might be a version you can try and compile unless
you need the features of 3.0.

I built 2.2.8a about 6 months ago here:
http://www.aljex.com/bkw/index.html#samba

And now there is a sco-built 2.2.8 that is part of this cd image:
ftp://ftp.sco.com/pub/openserver5/50...pp1CDimage.iso

Sites that have 2.0.7? You mean 5.0.7?

If you don't know what you're talking about, best not to talk. Samba
2.2.6 is on the 5.0.7 distribution CDs. There's no need to get it from
Skunkware.

Yes, it is best that you don't talk if you don't know what you
are talking about. Samba version 2.0.7 is a stable enviornment
on the systems that I work with.

I gave up about a year ago trying to compile any recent version of
Samba. I found that once the 5.0.6a patch was installed on SCO Samba
and some other programs were no longer able to compile. I had posted
a few times here but no answers were found. I don't recall the error
messages I saw but I am so fed up with SCO and their lawsuits I am
migrating all of my systems off of SCO as quickly as the $$$ permits.

Good. I'm sure the Samba team will be very pleased at your failure to
use their code in the OS of a scumbag caompany that is trying it's
damndest to kill their project despite profiting from their work.

You do realise of course that you are violating the licence under
which Samba is distributed by attempting to build it for SCO? You have
agreed to abide by your ownerH^H^H^H^H^OS supplier's terms. Since they
claim the GPL is invalid, it's obviously incompatible with their
tired, worthless products.
